wow, you want me to only run the tests once a day instead of 4 times? Surely, you're not suggesting that I'd get differing results if I checked out using the same time more than once.
Obviously, this is not the case. Looking at the summary page, however, we get a view across many CVS states, so it's hard to tell which version of the source code we're looking at. The answer isn't to submit only once per day (more testing is better, always!), but to have at least one build from each tester that references the source code at 12:00am EST.
I think the real answer is Subversion with its repository-wide revision number, which can be shown next to test results. It's much more usable than date -- I don't even know for sure what's 12:00 EST and how it get it ;-)
BuildBot supports both SubVersion and CVS. And keeps track of the "version" that is getting tested. For SVN it's the revision number, and for CVS it's a checkout time stamp (based on the actual change notification).
