      The release plugin can now do a lot of things, but it would be good if it could
      also start a Hudson job as release step.
      For instance, if a shell script changes part of a job during a release, the
      release plugin should then rebuild that job as final step.

          You could add a shell script step in the post build steps that hits a url back
          to hudson to kick off a build.

          Yes, that's what I'm doing right now.
          However, since that functionality exists everywhere else in Hudson, I think it
          would be a more elegant solution to directly offer that possiblity in the GUI.
