Infrastructure:
* during the reporting time we've received a brand new machine to
replace the old vmgump. Gump was switched over to the new
machine with very little downtime, which really was awesome.
Many thanks to the infrastructure team and Leo.
Technical:
* we've migrated a few more projects to use Maven2 builds and
managed to get above 85% successful builds on vmgump, which is
quite nice. Still we need to do something to make the Maven2
builds work the Gump way. Some experiments have been started in
svn, but nothing that could be used as the real solution has
been reached, yet.
* Looking at the Gump zone[1], switching to Java6 would bring our
success ratio down immediately. As usual some of the core APIs
in Java have changed (this time it's JDBC again, as it was with
Java 1.4 - in Java5 it was JAXP) and projects relying on them
have been broken. This is nothing Gump could fix, but it gives
a good indication of how widely supported (or not) Java6 may be
right now in the projects we build.
Other:
* still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn.
* no releases.
