[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 and of course Ted...

Let me be the first to say thank you all for your overwhelming support for Hudson and the work we’ve been doing. The Hudson community in general has always been incredibly supportive and friendly, but the outpouring of support from friends and users who’ve not previously spoken up has been awe inspiring. That said, let’s get down to business. As I covered yesterday there is some bubbling frustration within the...

There’s been a lot of discussion on the new mailing lists as of late regarding some of the infrastructure and ownership of the Hudson project. In case you haven’t been following along at home, I’ll try to catch you up as impartially as possible. The Facts 2009.06.02: After substantial problems with Java.net infrastructure, the dev community discusses new infrastructure options, including SourceForge, Google Code, Kenai, Berlios, GitHub, etc. Instead...

As Kohsuke mentioned in this post, the Java.net migration has caught just about everybody off-guard in the Hudson community. The tools we use hosted by Java.net are essentially locked from us until further notice (no ETA on the migration) which is, as you might imagine frustrating both for the core developers but hundreds of plugin developers that make Hudson the best damned CI server on...

Monday morning I came into work and discovered that I cannot commit to the Hudson Subversion repository. Initially I wasn’t worried — I thought it was just another java.net outage that will resolve itself in a few hours — but a little research a bit later revealed that Hudson was locked down and being migrated to new java.net infrastructure. I and the whole community was...

In tradition of taking advantages of my travel, Tikal, ExLibris, and InfraDNA hosted a Hudson users meetup in Jerusalem yesterday. There were 10+ people from Jerusalem and Tel Aviv who came over, which was great given the lack of upfront advertisement (my fault.) I did a short presentation about the current state of the Hudson project and where we are focusing efforts on. Then we...

On the off chance you’ve not seen some of the photos posted to the @hudsonci Twitter stream, here’s some of the photos from day two of JavaOne.</param> </param> </param></embed>...

For the uninitiated, "OTN" is short for the "Oracle Technology Network" where speakers and other persons of interest sit in front of cameras and their words are streamed live to the internets. After his session yesterday, Kohsuke hustled over to OTN headquarters, which look suspiciously like a tent in the middle of Mason St., and gave the following interview/chat.</embed>...
