Some questions about our preferences. I want to install an ibm hudson and an openjdk hudson building geoserver/geotools
The questions are
1) 32 or 64 bit java environment
2) Java 5 / Java 6
3) CentOS 5.3, Ubuntu Server 9.04 or opensuse 11.1
4) only trunk or geoserver 1.7.x and geotools 2.5.x additionally
Which combinations would be the best ?
I am planning to install 2 Virtual Machines for build and a third one for hosting oracle,db2,mysql and postgis for online tests.

Can I have it all??? 
Let's have a look at what we have today:
- java 5, 32 bit, on CentOS (main build server)
- java 5 and java 6, 32 bit, on Windows
- GeoServer 1.7.x is known not to work on OpenJDK, so probably there
is limited value in having it tested in that combination
So I'd say, let's cover what we miss:
- 64 bit
- Ubuntu or OpenSuse
If you setup two virtual machines I guess you could cover
one 32 and one 64? The same Hudson instance can run
against multiple JDK, see how the win32 one is setup
using a separate repository for each JDK (in order to
avoid class version number incompatibilites):

Btw, thanks a lot for adding more test coverage
