Part of the atomic commit thing that I wanted to do (which seems to be an
agreed upon idea) is make sure each commit still builds. I've got a local
instance of TeamCity running that auto-builds log4j whenever someone
commits to trunk (one minute intervals currently). So far, the only
build-breaking thing that happened was the big update for logger provider
and such, but that was a cache issue locally.

Speaking of which, which CI server are we using? I saw that the Jenkins
server has the project there, but it looks like almost all the Apache
projects are on there anyway.
