Hi,

When BlueOcean was originally being developed, James Dumay,
who was a Director, Product Management at Cloudbees
was very active in leading Blue Ocean, and communicating status and
milestones with the Jenkins community.

Since James has left Cloudbees, what I have observed is:

1.  No one at the manager/director level is visible on the
https://gitter.im/jenkinsci/blueocean-plugin Gitter channel to communicate
with users or get feedback
2.  Many bugs filed against Blue Ocean in JIRA are unassigned
3.  Cloudbees employees who log into
https://gitter.im/jenkinsci/blueocean-plugin seem to be doing so as a
best-effort/volunteer level.  For example, on Nov. 16, Keith Zantow
reported:


*Keith Zantow @kzantow Nov 16 06:36 @rodrigc hard to say exactly what's in
the road map at this moment, but certainly open to patches*

Can someone in Cloudbees management comment on the company's commitment to
Blue Ocean?

I try to do what I can.  I've submitted one bugfix:
https://github.com/jenkinsci/blueocean-plugin/pull/1794

And submitted a few bug reports:
https://bit.ly/2B8MmmQ

Blue Ocean is very good, but needs some bugfixes and usability
fixes to meet parity with the Jenkins Classic UI.
Blue Ocean is some complicated "modern JavaScript", and I don't
have enough time to dig into it to fix the problems myself.

I am trying to push Blue Ocean and Pipeline very heavily at the companies
I work for, and for the most part everyone I talk to really likes Blue
Ocean,
but the bugs/gaps are a problem for wider adoption/success in the projects
I work on.

Thanks for any feedback.
