• A brief update

  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...

• Who's driving this thing?

  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,...

• New Hudson Mailing Lists!

  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...

• 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...

• Dogfooding Hudson - We're Looking for Agents!

We’re currently building Hudson proper, the Hudson core RC branch, individual builds for the various Hudson plugins and Gerrit, as well as various libraries and infrastructure jobs Hudson depends on. We’re...

• Hosting your Hudson plugin at Github

  For as long as Hudson’s had a plugin model and development community, we’ve provided source code and binary hosting through our Subversion repo at java.net. But what if you’re a plugin developer and you don’t want to use Subversion? Well, we have an alternative for your source code: host it with Hudson on GitHub. To get this in place, send an...

• Hudson 1.368 Released!

  Regular readers will recognize that I’ve been slacking off quite a bit lately with my release announcements, my apologies. With the release of 1.368 on Sunday, which fixed a few fairly important bugs, I figured I’d dusty off my blogging fedora and give this a shot. This release has three bug fixes in it which were causing some issues for some...

• Continuous Deployment on the new Digg

  In my capacity as Build Guy at Digg, I’ve written up a blog post on our new continuous deployment/code review/pre-tested commit workflow. We’re using a combination of Hudson, Git and Gerrit, Selenium and more to make sure that every change going to Digg’s new site has been thoroughly tested. Read the whole post, with all the juicy details over on Digg’s...
