Woo! Thanks for posting that this is possible. Last I heard the Hudson 
setup was only for Galileo, but not I see that's not the case.

I've managed to get GEF to build there using the Athena CBI builder.

I've also installed a bunch of plugins and upped the number of available 
executors from 2 to 4 (it's a 4-CPU server, right?).

Some useful plugins include:

* Audit Trail, Disk Usage (to track who's doing what)
* Bugzilla (hopefully to integrate CVS changes w/ related bug numbers)
* Build-timeout (to kill long-running / stuck builds)
* CVS Tagging (for use with Modeling builds
* Description Setter, Text-finder (to label build status)
* SCP, Promoted Builds, Release (to control how builds are published)
* XVnc (for running headless UI tests)
* Jabber, IRC, Twitter (notifications)
* Emma (code coverage)
* SSH Slaves (to control slaves via SSH, eg., to perhaps use vservers as 
 slaves as usage grows)

So...

when is a good time to restart Hudson so that we can start using these 
wonderful new plugins?
