Hello everyone, I know you are all busy and eagerly waiting for the 10.2 release. I wish I had better news about this. Two weeks ago, I was notified that I am being RIF'd (Reduction In Force) from IBM in early December. Due to this unforeseen issue, my work on the release has taken a back burner to me looking for another job. I've been trying to up skill, rework my resume, as well as interviewing and applying to positions.
This will mean that the release will end up slipping from the initial timeline. At this point, I'm not sure when the release will come out. For those interested in helping, I've been testing the build in my own workspace in Jenkins. You can do the same at https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/KIE/job/__dev/. You should be able to log in to the Jenkins cluster (using your Apache credentials) and create your own folder at that link. It may be easiest to copy the 0-seed-job either from my folder or from the main builds. You'll want to modify where it points, which branches to use, etc. More can be read about how these are all put together at https://github.com/apache/incubator-kie-kogito-pipelines/blob/main/docs/jenkins.md (and associated md files). I'm certainly available to answer questions, but for now my focus is elsewhere. -- Jason Porter Software Engineer He/Him/His IBM
