I love Jenkins and am setting it up for a large role in the software
engineering process, but individual devs still have to do compiles before
checking in code - which even that could be handled by Jenkins.

home dirs in our environment are not on desktops, as the developers are
(mostly) remote and the compile environment has to be controlled.  Here are
the mount options.

storage-nfs-svr1:/home on /home type nfs (rw,hard,intr,addr=172.16.0.31)
storage-nfs-svr1:/usrlocal on /usr/local type nfs
(rw,hard,intr,addr=172.16.0.31)
