      I think it could be useful sometimes to be able to change the build behaviour a
      bit depending on the conditions.

      for example, if no java file was touch in the last revision (like the last
      revision was web-design only) then there's no need to rebuild the java doc.
      Factory behaviour adapatation can be very useful for big projects which require
      like an hour to build.

          Note that multiple build triggers can be combined into one build, so something
          like this is bit tricky to do right.

          I think a better approach is to allow the script inside to check dates. It has
          access to:

          1) all the timestamps of the source files
          2) the timestamp of the build

          (or if those are not suffice / easy-to-process, then we can make the changelogs
          available)

          Then the build script can take advantage of the information to choose what to build.
