Yes, I think Jently was built for this purpose - to take "a load off" - so 
a long running poll wouldn't affect the rest of jenkins. I think it is 
worth exploring. It would be possible to have a proxy app for this - 
although it still has the "firewall problem" for users. Worth thinking 
about.

Thanks, that clarifies a lot. 

I am working on a simple docker dev environment for this. Given that DotCI 
works best with docker, I thought a great way to try it out would be to run 
it inside a self contained container - this includes mongodb. 

You can use docker from within docker  - by bind mounting in the socket 
from the outside. This gives a neat self contained environment to run both 
jenkins and builds in to try it all out (seemed like a good idea at the 
time!). 

Great stuff!
