Yes, that's it. Eclipse or any OSLC Automation consumer. Here's a more
accessible introduction, although it's still a draft:

I see a few interesting scenarios:

Thanks. From my point of view, I'd love to see the HTTP transcript of some communications to get the sense of the protocol. I suspect other people considering to implement it would be in the same situation, if they are not familiar with OSLC.

(1) Jenkins as an automation provider

Automation consumers make requests to kick off builds in Jenkins and see status.
For instance, I'm in my IDE and want to request a build.

Right.

(2) Jenkins as an automation consumer

Jenkins makes an automation request when a build completes, for instance, to
kick off automated tests in another tool.

I didn't think about this, but you are right.


     If someone (you?) is interested in driving the implementation but need
     help for Jenkins expertise, we'd be happy to help.


Thanks, I might be taking you up on that.
