I use/know continuum. I know it is not so stable but it works acceptably and it is free. It is based on plexus, has a good component architecture and has a pretty good integration with maven. The latest beta fixed many past issues, and I hope they will be ready soon with something stable enough for Infra to accept it as *the* ASF per project continuous integration (and maybe continuous publishing). Locally I had configured a continuum that automatically updated a local snapshot of the website at every succesful build, too. This would have another option for easy publishing (as it would have needed only a single svn commit to change the website instead of the current complex workflow). For the JAMES projects its ant/maven support already suffice because we have the ant project depending on maven projects and not viceversa (and maybe we could prefer to manage each product without integration with others, so with no need to manage this dependency). BTW it is premature to discuss a similar solution until Brett and friends and Infra will think they all are ready to support a number of ASF projects building at every commit.
