I was just trolling the blogsphere (I'm trialing Nick Bradbury's FeedDemon, makes reading blogs as easy as reading newsgroups!) and came across Dan Miser's blog. Dan's a legend in the delphi world for his work with the Midas technology(something that never lived up to it's potential due to Borland's licensing fees), and he recently posted about Automated builds (even mentions FinalBuilder).
