Hi all, Just to summarize the yesterday's discussion:
- Trial run of Community Bridge is approved. We start it on Aug 01 - We approved the 3000USD + 500USD travel grant option - We split 3000 to two installments. We will have mid-term evaluation to evaluate the progress - Travel grant is conditional, depending on the project success. - I will create a JEP to document the Jenkins Community Bridge project framework for future reuse Please welcome Sladyn to the Jenkins project! And stay tuned for more detailed announcements in the newarest future. If you are interested in JCasC development tools, please join https://gitter.im/jenkinsci/jcasc-devtools-project and regular JCasC project meetings <https://jenkins.io/projects/jcasc/#office-hours-meeting>.
