The folks at Rebel Labs picked Jenkins as the last installation of their technical report series. It is a beautifully crafted 50 page PDF that covers the overview of the technology. You get to see a bit of details about how ZeroTurnaround uses Jenkins, and it contains a section where I get interviewed by them. Also, while they failed to mention this in the document,...

The last week the Jenkins project has reached a miletone release — Version 1.500. That’s no 1.5 nor 1.5.0. That’s the 501st release since its inception, counting all the way up from 1.0, 1.1 to 1.500. We’ll be celebrating this release in the upcoming FOSDEM conference in Brussels, but I wanted to thank everyone for making this great community possible by participating and using it. Despite...

People in far eastern countries use languages that are quite different from English, and live in a time zone that’s largely incompatible from the U.S./Europe time. So naturally these folks tend to keep things to themselves. That’s why I’ve been wanting to do a meet-up in Seoul for some time, yet I didn’t know anyone there to get one going. That changed in Jenkins User...

The Jenkins survey we’ve been running since the Jenkins User Conference in San Francisco has concluded. All in all we counted 721 responses --- thanks everyone for voicing their thoughts! Naturally, it took a while to tally that many responses, but thanks to Lisa, we now have the result in time for the holiday. As you can see in our installation tracking, Jenkins installation base has...

"> 우리는 2013년 1월25일 저녁에 Jenkins meet-up을 삼성전자와 함께 준비하고 있습니다. Meet-up은 서초사옥에서 진행될 예정이며 추후 변경될 수 있습니다. 발표자는 일본 커뮤니티에서 활동중인 Cactuman과 삼성이고 Groovy script를 이용한 job 일괄설정 에 대해서 발표할 예정입니다. Jenkins를 설치한 통계를 통해 저희도 한국에 많은 사용자가 있다는것을 알고 있었습니다. 지금까지는 메인 Jenkins community에서 컨택하는데 실패했었지만 이번에 그런 상황이 해결된것에 너무 흥분됩니다. 이번 meet-up에 참가할 의사가 있으면 meetup.com 에 회답해 주시면 됩니다. 참가비는 없으며 우리는 Jenkins,plugin 들과...

Earlier this year we participated in FOSDEM 2012 in Brussels, Belgium. Overall the event was a major success and we’re very happy we were able to take part in it! For FOSDEM 2013, we’ll be back in Brussels and participating in a major way. The first day of FOSDEM (February 2, 2013) will be the 2nd birthday for the Jenkins project, and seems appropriate that...

What better way to end the year than to come join a little Jenkins hackathon this Friday afternoon with Kohsuke (the core developer), Max Spring (Jenkow plugin), and hopefully other Jenkins hackers? We’ll do this at CloudBees Los Altos office, starting around Friday 1pm. View CloudBees Los Altos office in a larger map Our plan is to primarily hack on the Jenkow plugin, but if you have...

The last Jenkins office hour of the year hosts Robert Sandell and Tomas Westling, who will go over newly open-sourced metadata plugin from Sony Mobile Communications (more about this story on their website). This team from Sony Mobile has been known for several other popular plugins, including the Gerrit trigger plugin. And I think this latest batch of plugins will not disappoint! As I understand,...
