3 ideas come to mind-
cron and or cruisecontrol for off-hours scripting
ant for handling cross-platform scripting
maven for implementing dependency checking as well as the ability to pull from online repositories

I will take a look at these. I am certainly familiar with cron. The others not so much.
Youtube.com
I worked with a company last summer that implemented identical functionality and wanted to firewall youtube videos to use their (considerably more capable as far as supporting every codec on the planet) player..youtube said if you link/use/href any amount of content to our site then you MUST use our player..its no WONDER they have that incredible pageview traffic ..

Is there some specific functionality you want to Automate???
I have some things in mind, but basically any task that I am performing across multiple servers I want to automate. While I might have time to manually do things across 20 servers (not really... but that is the current state) I won't be able to do so across 100. Make sense?

Thanks/
