We've been running a Jenkins CI server (https://jenkins.jupyter.org/ ) on
infrastructure kindly provided by Rackspace. This has become a maintenance
headache - Jenkins needs regular updates, and the Ansible role we use to
configure it is not actively maintained. The need for it is also decreasing
as free hosted CI services such as Travis, Circle and Appveyor become more
capable.

We therefore intend to shut down our Jenkins server next week, along with
its Windows worker. If you're relying on it for something, or you'd like to
get some data off it before it disappears, please reply to this email.

The main things for which we have been using Jenkins are:

1. Testing on Windows - this can now be done on Appveyor.
2. Integration tests which aren't clearly tied to one repository - Min has
suggested that we create test repos and use Travis' cron features to ensure
that they run regularly. See https://github.com/minrk/test-grid for an
example.

Thanks,
Thomas
