Rather, we'll have different types of builders. So although we'll want to keep the scoring consistent for both so that when we *do* have such infrastructure they'll be queued fairly, currently each builder type will be able to implement its own findBuildCandidate() and only be looking for builds of the required type... in which case, the short-term solution for findBuildCandidate() should be pretty straight forward? -Michael.
