Hello Dave,

At Resolver Systems we use Cruise Control .NET along with IronPython
and Subversion to provide Source Code Control and continuous
integration. The combination is *great*.

I've never had to configure it (I just poke it occassionally), but it
*looks* like it should be usable with non .NET projects: we have it
running all sorts of batch files and Python scripts as part of the
built and test process.

All the best,

Fuzzyman
