Steve,

It appears you are running a very common MSFT daily build / test plan (I worked there 3 years). So I am going to challenge you and ask why not more frequent?

Continuous Integration, run your BATs and BVTs at each checkin, or better before developers checkin...

We do often spin a build for each checkin (or batch of checkins), but there are official builds we expect people to install and play with and these are what I'm talking about here. You make a very good point that building (and testing) on a continuous basis is easily possible and very valuable.

Max - For what it's worth, there is no difference between a daily build and a continuous rolling build when your product really does take 24 hours to build.
