We might, as the usage stats are sent by users' browsers. If they go through the proxy, we could add some connection test to Jenkins to collect stats about that -- for future releases. I still expect that completely offline environments (including the users of Jenkins) are really rare compared to those where Jenkins doesn't get to connect through the proxy, but desktop users do, so that should be a start. >> For version 1 of this, can't we just document some possible solutions to >> this problem and point the user to these solutions from inside the wizard on >> detecting the fact that there's no internet connection?

I think we should be able to do this pretty easily. There are several possible approached to deal with this, and we can point them to it. Even if we just package the previous bundled plugins into a zip file and make that available as a separate download, it won't be worse (except for having to download two things instead of one) than what we have today. But we should be able to do something much better than that (scripted bundle creation or script to download selection + depenencies) with a bit of effort. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
