It is not silly. CruiseControl is an open source project, you can take that project and add additional features to it and no one can stop you. Continuum would have benefited from an existing architecture, with an existing user base, to extend that platform to support Maven2. And this would have removed the need to re-invent the plumbing of a continuous integration system. I'm not questioning the new features of Continuum, as people believe they are of value, I am questioning the need to re-invent the plumbing part.
