I am progressing a bit further on my plugin that will allow for easier DITA builds within the Hudson continuous integration server. Hudson is a quite handy build management system that offers you a lot of additional value on top of your existing builds and processes.
You can use your existing DITA-OT Ant scripts to build your output within Hudson. Many Dita users are not Ant experts and often Ant is one of the limiting factors in Dita adoption by smaller teams. I hope this plugin will help further promote DITA and provide another simple tool for Dita builds.
All feedback and suggestions are welcome.
Global properties configuration
Defining your DITA Open Toolkit installations. You can define multiple installations if it is ever necessary to use a back level version or for testing new versions prior to moving to production.
Adding a Dita build to a job
Jobs can include many steps and multiple builds. If you are building an Eclipse feature you might include your code build, context sensitive help build, and DITA transform to help topics within the same job.
This is on hold for a bit while another work related project takes a lot of my time. If someone wanted to take over the code, let me know.
Where can I find this source code?
Thanks.

Hello Yucheng,
Thanks for your interest. The code is now on SourceForge, see my post at Dita4Hudson project posted to SourceForge.
Hello Brett,
can you please publish the source-code / the plugin on sourceforge again?
Thanks in advance,

You’ll need to extract the source code from the SourceForge SVN project, see the project development page for instructions on how to extract. If you’d like to contribute to the project, click the request to join link on the right side of the page.
The SVN project is empty right?
Hi Lee,
I just connected to the SVN server as an anonymous users and I can see the project files. Entering the SVN url into my browser directly also shows the files.
