If you are familiar with CruiseControl and Maven then it shouldn't be
too complicated to write a Maven file that run the tests, package up,
produce the docs. CruiseControl can take care of all the rest.

I also found that writing a simple Continuous integration system myself
was a very simple task in Python, it might be a good choice as well. (I
resorted to this solution after giving up on trying to install Java on
OpenBSD.)

HTH,
Miki
