I agree with a unique number that Continuum can link to a revision or
a date, depending on the SCM capabilities. I'm thinking that the
Master should control time, so if a timestamp is required, it should
be obtained from the master server, so that all agents are synced up
with a single source of time.

ep, but something to bear in mind is that not all systems support an
atomic revision number (eg, CVS). Perhaps the date could be used in
its stead here - as long as it's used consistently (with no gaps in
time) it should be fine (though date is bad to use in subversion,
since it doesn't always work).
I was actually thinking we should create a separate record from the
checkout about what the last build was anyway (as this would support
the multiple build definitions as well). This might be a good
opportunity.
