      This job-type is nice. It would be even better if:

      1) The e-mail notification could apply for this job-type.

      2) Some of the post-build actions could apply for this job-type (at least "Build
      other projects").

      3) When monitoring an external job, the fact that the job has not run for a
      period of time is often a problem which should be notified. Could we have an
      option to specify a period of time, and functionality so that the e-mail
      notification information from 1) is used to notify that the job has not been
      running lately.

          The challenge is that Publisher works with AbstractProject, but ExternalJob
          doesn't extend from this.

          Looks like we need one more degree of generalization.

          Yes, that makes sense. One class that contains publish functionality that both
          AbstractProject and ExternalJob could inherit from.

          Any news on this one?

          (moving to 'core' component as it IMO belong there)

          It does not look trivial to get publishers working with Job classes (vs AbstractProject), especially as MailSender uses AbstractBuild (and Jobs create Runs). A simpler approach would be to have ExternalJob (or ViewJob) be a subclass of AbstractProject. These would be projects with only publishers.

          Seeing that AbstractProject is an extension point, I'll start on a plugin.
