Software Development :: Build Tools
System :: Monitoring
About: The Nabaztag Cruise Control plugin is designed to alert a Nabaztag
about project builds. The rabbit will make a clarinet noise every time
Cruise Control runs a build, and then speaks a line or two to let you know
what has happened. The ears are the key, as they will tell you if they
build failed or was successful. It will declare the time the project was
built and who checked in code since it was last successfully built.
Waiting messages are displayed as a glowing nose. Pressing the button
between the ears once retrieves the last message and double-tapping
deletes the message.

is simple.
