[jsword-devel] Automated builds, etc.

[Keith Ralston]

I am not as familiar with ant as you seem to be.  I am, however, a big fan
of automating the build process as you have outlined.

Sorry, I don't know what JNLP is.  However, I am heavily in favor of
frequent user feedback.

What do people think of the idea of setting up an automated build system
for jsword?  Something like Cruise Control or anthill should do the job
quite nicely.  I'm happy to do this if people think it would be a good
idea.

Also, what do people think of the idea of creating ANT targets for the
varions JUnit tests?  This way we could get frequent feedback on the
status of the project trunk from automated nightly builds.

Finally, what about adding a target for making signed versions of the
jsword jar and it's dependancies for use with JNLP - this would provide
an excellent method of getting recent builds to interested
non-developers to get feedback.
