• Upcoming Events in June and early July

  I’ve just added three events coming up in the next few weeks to the Jenkins calendar. Conveniently, they are all events I’ll be attending while traveling around Western Europe! The Cologne JUG is having a meetup on Saturday, June 25th, starting at 2pm. We’ll be talking about Jenkins, maybe doing some coding, and then heading out for drinks and more talk!...

• A big thanks to Rackspace

  This post is long over-due and I really apologize for that. Some months ago we put out the call for "more agent machines!" through the mailing lists, sky-writers and twitter. We had a serious problem, for a continuous integration project, a large number of our plugins and dependencies weren’t being built in a continuous and automated fashion! We had some builds on a couple of...

• The State of the Jenkins Project

  A few weeks ago our very own Kohsuke Kawaguchi gave a presentation at the Silicon Valley CI Summit held in Mountain View. Within the presentation, Kohsuke included a collection of numbers about the vibrancy of the Jenkins project that certainly hasn’t gotten enough attention. While the slideshow is embedded below, here’s some good high-level points: Over 170 GitHub pull requests in the...

• Updated Usage Stats Available!

  Updated usage statistics are now available at https://jenkins-ci.org/census This data has been scrubbed of distinguishing information as much as possible, filtered for installations we’ve seen at least twice a month with at least one job set up, and split up into monthly JSON files. Starting with August, we only have data on installations of version 1.368 or later - before...

• Jenkins!

  (This was sent as an email to the Hudson dev and users mailing lists after voting concluded, but I thought it’d be good to post it here as well.) The vote is closed, and the results are in. More than half of the total votes were from ineligible voters, but the result would have been the same either way. The final...

• Hudson's future

  First, my apologies for the lack of updates on the Hudson/Oracle situation for the last few weeks. While talks have been ongoing, the holidays have slowed things down, and we didn’t want to send out information that would later turn out not to be true. We’ve been waiting for the talks to reach a resolution - and I believe they now have. Since the java.net...

• Weekend Update with Andrew Bayer

  [Ed. note Andrew was not involved in selecting this post’s title - rtyler] I wanted to give the Hudson community a quick update on the current status of the issues Tyler has discussed in the earlier posts here. Friday afternoon, Kohsuke, CloudBees CEO Sacha Labourey and myself jumped on a conference call with Hudson contributor/Oracle employee Winston Prakash, Oracle manager Denis Tyrell...

• Hudson Events Calendar

  Just wanted to let everybody know that I’ve gone ahead and added a Calendar for all the upcoming Hudson-related events. Hopefully we’ll be able to add more and more events for the rest of the year including seminars, more meetups and potentially a few drink-ups! Worth mentioning that I’ve not yet tested the iCal feed so if you have troubles with it,...

• Hudson Anonymous Usage Data

  In late 2008, the Hudson team released version 1.264 which added an anonymous reporting feature (you can opt-out in the "Manage Hudson" screen). The reporting feature has been sending information back to the Hudson team to help us understand how Hudson is used in aggregate; the info being reported includes the number of jobs configured, agent configurations, what plugins (and...
