I've been doing requirements and design for a build system and
continuous
integration setup for our in-house software and on the build side I
have
made the rounds from Maven2+Ant to Ivy+Ant to commercial systems to a
home-brew system. Currently we use a lot of Ant and make, and some
"other
stuff". In the process of all this I looked at Gump briefly and
moved on.
Now that I am thinking more about how I would design a system to
build
all of our projects (using Ant) it was starting to slightly
resemble Gump
and its approach using modules and projects.
I am now looking at it again in more detail and I like what I see
so far
(and I love Python so that rocks too). I was wondering what the
current
status of the project is. I see stuff about Gump3 in development
and I am
intrigued. If I wanted to start using it is Gump3 ready for
primetime? I
find surprisingly little info on the project in terms of other people
using it outside of Apache. I was wondering if that meant it was
relatively dead, or it just works so well that nobody talks about
it? ;o)
Any advice would be most welcome.
Thanks for your interest. I would say Gump3 is currently "in
hybernation", unfortunately.
Not "dead", since I do still plan to return to work on it at some
point in the future, but right now it is just not functionally
complete nor ready for real use.
Gump2 is still running at apache and elsewhere though, and working
just fine, even if its not seeing that much active development either
right now. Unless you want to dive in and hack Gump3 into something
production-ready yourself, I'd suggest starting off from the gump2
configuration in use at apache and customizing it for your own use.
cheers,
