I see, from http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/

Would you be happy with http://testing.open-bio.org/biojava/ as the URL?

Are there any gotchas with installing it? e.g. dependencies? I guess
you'll need to contact Chris D to get access to the machine and
also sign up to root-l to keep you in the loop with any sys admin.
He'll probably want to know things like expected machine load
(e.g. is it RAM hungry?).

So far I'm getting buildbot emails from testing.open-bio.org so
you may find it works OK from the new location.
