• The State of the Jenkins Project

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...

• Jenkins' New Look

  As you might have noticed Jenkins finally has a brand spankin' new logo! Over the past couple weeks we’ve run two series of votes, one for the initial 11 logo submissions and then a final, run-off election, for the two most popular choices. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everybody that submitted logos! It is incredibly flattering to have so many people passionate about the...

• The polls are open for the Jenkins Logo Contest!

  After a number of absolutely fantastic logo submissions from a number of designers, I’m extremely pleased to open the polls on the vote for the brand new Jenkins logo! The thumbnails do not do any of these logos justice in my opinion, so I recommend opening each logo up in its own tab to get the full effect :) I plan to...

• 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...
