I just entered something pretty close to this into Wiki for Jakarta Gump: http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ApacheNewsletterDrafts/Issue2
Please feel free to edit it as appropriate. regards Adam -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gump Service: The primary Gump server has suffered a service outage since September 9th. As such this link is stale: http://cvs.apache.org/builds/gump/latest/ Alternate Gump servers are still active, and will temporarily take over nagging duty. http://gump.covalent.net/log/index.html http://nagoya.apache.org/~rubys/gump/ http://gump.cocoondev.org/ Gump Metadata (an OSS map): Stefan Bodwig has continued to maintain Gump descriptors -- the project metadata -- providing an invaluable service to the OSS community. Keeping Gump metadata healthy keeps continuous integration valuable. The OSS community is empowered to maintain their own metadata, however Stefan's expert contributions continue to supplement the efforts of others. Python Gump: Work has continued on a Python re-write of Gump. The rationale for a re-write, in short, being that a single language (Python) was more conducive to forming a development community than the combination of Java/XSLT/shell scripting/Perl, etc. For more details see: http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?GumpPython Python Gump provides the traditional "unsupervised runs" (communicating/nagging via mail/HTTP) but has some new features. Some notable differences are : - A more OO approach to manipulating the metadata, and performing processing. - A GUI (for metadata browsing & 'personal Gumping') - HTML documentation via xdocs, leveraging Jakarta Forrest to produce the site. - RSS feeds (for news updates on 'new successes' & 'new failures'). - a repository of built jars, in standard jar repository format. Current servers (publicly) running Python Gump are: HTML: http://lsd.student.utwente.nl/gump/index.html RSS: http://lsd.student.utwente.nl/gump/index.rss Repository: http://lsd.student.utwente.nl/gump/jars HTML: http://gump.dotnot.org/index.html RSS: http://gump.dotnot.org/index.rss Repository: http://gump.dotnot.org/repository/ HTML: http://gump.chalko.com/py/index.html RSS: http://gump.chalko.com/py/index.rss Repository: http://gump.chalko.com/py/repo/ SF.net outages: CVS outages at SF.net continue to plague Gump, since it can't access staples like junit & as such whole trees of projects are not accurately integrating for this reason. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
