Ant servlet console

I am surprised that no one has yet created a simple servlet app that manages Ant builds remotely. I suppose something like Anthill is close to that, but it’s a lot of overhead.

Does anyone know of a project that simply allows you to run ant targets for different build.xml files, see the results, and possibly set up simple schedules? If there isn’t one, is anyone interested in helping create one? Ideally it would also provide email notification of any failures.

I want this so that we can easy manage updating the OpenSyphony website.

    Hi buddy! Happy new year!

    damagecontrol is more lightweight than anthill or CC. http://damagecontrol.codehaus.org/ but it’s not exactly a remote ant runner. You could use AntFlow perhaps. http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=29757
