Yes it would be a separate repo ... as you could run the "testsuite" against falcon without wanting to have the sdk or vice versa and this would destroy the circle (at least one of them).
I would do this, but I would do it thoroughly ... meaning I would also cleanup the build itself. Starting with streamlined goal names (currently the target names are a mess ... I'd streamline them similar to the phases of a maven build: clean, compile, test, integration-test, package, install, deploy, ...). And one thing will be that I will only be doing this on the ASF Jenkins, as this is - in my belief - the only true place for the build to be. Im fine with other Jenkins instances (I have a Teamcity running for my stuff), but there has to be one on the ASF machines.

Are you envisioning more than just choosing which ant targets to run in the right order? Is this going to end up being roughly what Justin suggested as well? No objections from me if someone wants to take a shot at it. Does the release need to wait for this? I hope not. -Alex
