Hi,

at my current client, they will have many similar jobs to manage. 

The jobs are basically parametrized ant jobs that pull sources from 
Subversion. Besides there are some other options and plugins enabled :

   - Discard Old Builds
   - Delete workspace before build starts
   - Copy files into the job's workspace before building
   - Scan workspace for open tasks
   - Editable Email notification

 As far as I can tell, there are currently mutliple options available to 
handle that situation:

1) Use the configuration slicing plugin. This sounds really nice, but the 
biggest blocker at the moment is, that I cannot 'slice' the ant build step. 
The builds are parametrized, and I use push many parameters forward to ant 
with -DantName=$parameter options. Am I just too blind to see, or is that 
currently not supported by the plugin?

2) Use the template project plugin. I haven't tried it, but am a little 
scared by "It has had virtually no testing." in the wiki. 

3) Use the REST API and some custom scripts to manage the jobs.

4) Generate the xml files for the jobs and read them. 

While I would love to use one of the two options above, I feat that some 
scripting needs to be done. What are your experiences?
