It appears the project is defunct or at least in hibernation. I can't
even get to the repository.

I haven't tried CruiseControl + Rake yet, but others have told me it's
possible. Another option I was just made aware of last week is
Cerberus[1]. Since then, I've also seen it mentioned in a blog and an
announcement of a new version on this list. So it seems pretty active.
It's still fairly new, but might be worth looking into. I'm planning
on checking it out this weekend.
