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 end voting March 28th...

Jenkins is now at 1.400 (as of last Monday, yes, I know. But better late than never…​). As with 1.300 and 1.200, this release doesn’t particularly signify any substantial major release, but nonetheless it is a milestone for those of us who are involved in the project — I think repeating something 400 times is something one can be proud of. It’s a bit...

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.

As I had mentioned in a previous post back when Jenkins was called something else, who can remember what anymore, I spent a lot of time working on a mirroring network. With our departure from any and all Oracle infrastructure, this mirroring network has now become our sole distribution mechanism for pushing out all releases and all plugins, in short, lots and lots of...

Amongst all the work this week with setting up project infrastructure, the first release of Jenkins and a flood of developer activity on GitHub, the interim governance board has decided to hold periodic virtual meetings. The first meeting will be held today at 3pm PST (23:00 UTC) in the #jenkins channel on IRC (more details here). In Kohsuke’s post to the mailing list, he further explained...

(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 result of all eligible...
