[Bioperl-l] 'Nightly build' tracking for Bioperl

Some kind of 'nightly build' system for Bioperl - which automatically 
builds the current Bioperl distribution from CVS, runs the tests and 
reports problems - was mentioned as a good idea at the BOF at BOSC 2004. 
I've spent a bit of time looking at open source build monitoring tools, 
and I'm pretty frustrated. Everything out there seems to be either 
really hard to install (e.g. Mozilla Tinderbox) or incomplete 
(Test::AutoBuild).

Has anyone worked on something like this before? Does anyone have 
recommendations?

Thanks,
Peter
