Gump Board Report Draft

[Stefan Bodewig]

Hi all

the current draft is at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GUMP/20201216 - basically
the same report as usual, pointing out the VM migration as real
activity.

I'm going to send the report during the coming Wednesday.

Gump Board Report Q4/2013

[Stefan Bodewig]

Apache Gump is a cross-project continuous integration server.  Gump's
intention isn't so much to be a CI server but rather a vehicle that
makes people look beyond their project's boundaries and helps the
projects to collaborate.

Gump is written in Python and supports several build tools and version
control systems.  The Apache installation of Gump builds ASF as well
as non-ASF projects and their dependencies.  It started in the Java
part of the foundation but also builds projects like APR, HTTPd and
XMLUnit.NET.

== Summary ==

Very little activity, Gump seems to create useful results for the few
projects that use it.  A team at Oracle seems to be running Gump for
compatibility tests of Java 8.

== Releases ==

Gump has never done any releases.  One reason for this is that the ASF
installations of Gump work on the latest code base almost all of the
time following its integrate everything continuosly philosophy.

Stefan has polled the Gump list and our only known user outside of the
ASF whether anybody would like to see a release but no response was
received.

== Activity ==

Ludmila Shikhvarg who works at Oracle and tests next-Java
compatibility runs Gump internally at Oracle.  Unfortunately the
instance is not a public one.  Occasionally she pings the Gump list to
tells us about build problems she sees, she did so for three projects
and Java8 in October and traffic has been directed to the project
mailing lists.

The Gump installation on vmgump was stuck for several weeks and nobody
noticed it.

== Changes to the Roster ==

All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure
the ASF installations.

No new committers to the code base, no changes to the PMC.  The most
recent addition to the PMC was in December 2006 when we added Sander
Temme.

Gump Board Report Q4 2012

[Stefan Bodewig]

Hi all,

I'm sorry but this time I didn't manage to create the (copy-pasted
either way) Wiki page for the report and am late, below is what I
posted:

Apache Gump is a cross-project continuous integration server.  Gump's
intention isn't so much to be a CI server but rather a vehicle that
makes people look beyond their project's boundaries and helps the
projects to collaborate.

== Summary ==

No Board level issues.

== Releases ==

The ASF installations of Gump work on the latest code base almost all
of the time.  The project is in a state of a perpetual beta.  There
have been no releases.

== Activity ==

This has been a very quite month even by Gump's standard.  Very few
tweaks have been made to metadata and not a single commit to the code
base.

== Changes to the Roster ==

All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure
the ASF installations.

No new committers to the code base, no changes to the PMC.

== Statistics ==

As of Tue, 11 Dec 2012 the ASF installations check out a bit less than
175 source trees (114 from the ASF repository) and try to build a bit
more than 850 projects.  A complete Gump run takes about ten hours
on vmgump and about eight on the FreeBSD jail and nine and a half on
Adam where more projects fail to build.

Gump Board Report Q1 2012

[Stefan Bodewig]

Apache Gump is a cross-project continuous integration server.  Gump's
intention isn't so much to be a CI server but rather a vehicle that
makes people look beyond their project's boundaries and helps the
projects to collaborate.

Gump is written in Python and supports several build tools and version
control systems.  The Apache installation of Gump builds many ASF
projects and their dependencies.  It started in the Java part of the
foundation but also builds projects like APR, HTTPd and log4net.

== Summary ==

No Board level issues.

== Releases ==

The ASF installations of Gump work on the latest code base almost all
of the time.  The project is in a state of a perpetual beta.  There
have been no releases.

== Infrastructure ==

The site now uses svnpubsub.  If we ever want to create a release,
we'll use svnpubsub right from the start.

We encountered only a few minor hickups after the upgrade to FreeBSD
9.0, mostly due to upgrading svn and having to upgrade all working
copies.  Many thanks to the infra team.

== Activity ==

The Gump project really consists of two parts, the code base for the
project and the ASF installations[1] running this code base to build
many ASF projects as well as some related projects.

The code base mostly does what its current users need so there isn't
much development going on at all.  During this quarter we've tweaked
git support to allow pulling from branches other than master.

There are only a few people contributing across all projects and a few
additional people maintaining the metadata of the projects they are
interested in the most.

We've finally given up waiting for expat to build on libtool2 systems
and now provide a system installed expat, this means we've started to
sucessfully build APR and projects depending on APR for the first time
since at least a year, probably longer.

== Changes to the Roster ==

All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure
the ASF installations.

No new committers to the code base, no changes to the PMC.

== Branding and Naming ==

We believe to meet all branding requirements.

== Statistics ==

As of Tue, 13 Mar 2012 the ASF installations check out a bit less than
180 source trees (115 from the ASF repository) and try to build a bit
more than 850 projects.  A complete Gump run takes about nine and a
half hours on vmgump and about nine on the FreeBSD jail and ten on
Adam where more projects fail to build.

Gump Board Report Q3 2011

[Stefan Bodewig]

Apache Gump is a cross-project continuous integration server.  It is
different from usual CI servers in that it expects the individual
project builds to succeed; its purpose is to check the integration of
a project with the latest code rather than a fixed version of the
project's dependencies.  If you want a more traditional nightly build
server, Gump is not for you.  Use Gump if you want to know when a
change in your dependencies breaks your project or when your changes
break other projects.

Gump's intention isn't so much to be a CI server but rather a vehicle
that makes people look beyond their project's boundaries and helps the
projects to collaborate.

control systems.  The Apache installation of Gump builds many ASF
projects and their dependencies.  It started in the Java part of the
foundation but also builds projects like APR, HTTPd and log4net.

== Summary ==

No development activity at all, no issues.

All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure

projects and a few additional people maintaining the metadata of the
projects they are interested in the most.

No changes to the PMC.

The past quarter several projects built by Gump have been moved to the
Attic and now are no longer built by Gump, the only notable addition
is the Tomcat 7 branch.

== Development ==

None.

== Releases ==

The ASF installations of Gump work on the latest code base almost all
of the time.  The project is in a state of a perpetual beta.  There
have been no releases.

== Infrastructure ==

No new is good news.

== Project Branding Requirements ==

We believe to meet all requirements by now.

== Statistics ==

As of Sat, 17 Sep 2011 the ASF installations check out a bit more than
170 source trees (114 from the ASF repository) and try to build a bit
less than 800 projects.  A complete Gump run takes about eight hours
on vmgump.  Timings for the FreeBSD jail and the MacOS X server are
currently not available as either build is having issues.

Some builds have been removed since the projects moved to the Attic
(Cactus, for example).

== Summary ==

Low development activity to adapt to a difference between mvn 2.x and
3.x, the Mac OS X machine went live, no issues.

== Issues ==

There are no Board level issues.

== Community ==

The Gump project really consists of two parts, the code base for the

No changes to the PMC.

Support requests for the non-public Gump installation running on top
of OpenJDK7 dribble in and get addressed.

== Development ==

Only minor changes that lead to separate install builders for mvn2
and mvn3.

== Releases ==

The ASF installations of Gump work on the latest code base almost all
of the time.  The project is in a state of a perpetual beta.  There
have been no releases.

== Infrastructure ==

The Mac OS X instance called Adam is now running the full set of
projects.

The infra team has provided us with a VM to run Gump on top of Apache
Harmony but it is currently not used.  We expect to either start using
it or give it back during the next quarter.

== Project Branding Requirements ==

Logos still need a TM symbol, waiting for somebody with the skills
required to make the change.  Unfortunately the Gump community doesn't
seem to include a person with said skills.

The website now uses Forrest 0.9 which allowed us to remove our own
custom skin that was only added in order to enable the trademark
footer.

== Statistics ==

As of Thu, 10 Mar 2011 the ASF installations check out a bit less than
180 source trees (113 from the ASF repository) and try to build a bit
less than 800 projects.  A complete Gump run takes about nine hours
on vmgump or the FreeBSD jail and a bit less than seven hours on the
MacOS X server where more projects fail to build and thus less time is
spent building dependent projects.

The time taken on vmgump has almost halfed when compared to last
quarter mostly due to migrating to a new virtual host; it is now back
where it used to be half a year ago.  The time for the FreeBSD jail
remains more or less the same.

Gump Board Report Q4 2010

[Stefan Bodewig]

Apache Gump is a cross-project continuous integration server.  It is
different from usual CI servers in that it expects the individual

Gump is written in Python and supports several build tools and version
control systems.  The Apache installation of Gump builds many ASF
projects and their dependencies.  It started in the Java part of the
foundation but also builds projects like APR, HTTPd and log4net.

== Summary ==

A new Gump instance running on Mac OS X, Some development that lead to
support for Maven 3.x, work on project branding requirements, no
issues.

== Issues ==

There are no Board level issues.

== Community ==

The Gump project really consists of two parts, the code base for the
project and the ASF installations[1] running this code base to build
many ASF projects as well as some related projects.

The code base mostly does what its current users need so there isn't
much development going on at all.  No new committers have been added.

All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure
the ASF installations.  There are a few people contributing across all
projects and a few additional people maintaining the metadata of the
projects they are interested in the most.

No changes to the PMC.

In November we've been told that somebody was running Gump on top of
OpenJDK7 and encountered some compatibility issues[2] - which is no
surpise, we've always seen problems when we upgraded Java versions.
One of the issues identified led to changes inside Ant's trunk to work
around backwards incompatible changes in javac.  Unfortunately the
results of said Gump installation do not seem to be available to the
public.
 
== Development ==

Gump now supports Maven 3.x as a builder.

== Releases ==

The ASF installations of Gump work on the latest code base almost all
of the time.  The project is in a state of a perpetual beta.  There
have been no releases.

== Infrastructure ==

Sander Temme installed Gump on an XServe running Mac OS X Server.
This installation is currently only running the small subset of
projects we use for testing.

We've asked the infra team for a new VM to run Gump on top of Apache
Harmony.  Mark Hindess of the Harmony community volunteered to help
with the Harmony side of things.

== Project Branding Requirements ==

=== Project Website Basics ===

The Gump website matched the requiremens ever since Gump became a TLP.

=== Project Naming And Descriptions ===

Many pages only referred to Gump - this has been fixed.  The home
page starts with a description and there is no download page.

=== Website Navigation Links ===

We had to add a link to www.apache.org and the security link.  Our
license link points to the 2.0 license directly.

=== Trademark Attributions ===

The requirements are met now.

=== Logos and Graphics ===

Logos still need a TM symbol, waiting for somebody with the skills
required to make the change.

It would be good if there was any (at least one) logo to take
inspiration (or steal the typography of TM) from, but even the
feather at www.apache.org lacks the required TM as of this writing.

=== Project Metadata ===

Has been in place already.

== Statistics ==

As of Wed, 8 Dec 2010 the ASF installations check out a bit less than
190 source trees (119 from the ASF repository) and try to build a bit
more than 700 projects.  A complete Gump run takes more than sixteen
hours on vmgump and seven and a half on the FreeBSD jail.

The time taken on vmgump has almost doubled when compared to last
quarter while it remains more or less constant on the FreeBSD jail.
Given that we don't have significantly more failures on FreeBSD the
difference is likely related to other things that happen in parallel
on the machines hosting the VM/jail.

[REPORT] Gump Board Report Q2 2010

Apache Gump is a cross-project continuous integration server.  It is
different from usual CI servers in that it expects the individual

projects and a few additional people maintaining the metadata of the

No changes to the PMC.

== Development ==

The last quarter has seen a minor improvement that allows output file
names to be specified with wildcards.  Since Gump cannot influence the
names of jars created by Maven 2.x the paths had to be adjusted with
every release of a project built by it so far.

We've managed to build a few projects that have been failing for a
long time in Gump - among them the ASF projects Portals, ActiveMQ,
Directory Server, Tapestry and parts of Camel.

== Releases ==

The ASF installations of Gump work on the latest code base almost all
of the time.  The project is in a state of a perpetual beta.  There
have been no releases.

== Infrastructure ==

Access to vmgump has been tightened up, the number of people with sudo
has been reduced and OPIE is now required.

== Statistics ==

As of Sun, 06 Jun 2010 the ASF installations check out a bit less than
200 source trees (114 from the ASF repository) and try to build a bit
more than 600 projects.  A complete Gump run takes more than eleven
hours on vmgump and eight and a half on the Solaris zone.

Infrastructure:

* Justin was kind enough to bring vmgump's Debian packages up to
  more recent versions, many thanks.

* vmgump probably is at its limits of disk space as well as CPU.
  A full run of what we currently build is taking more than 6 and
  a half hours.


Technical:

* vmgump is now running Mono 1.2.3 and successfully builds NAnt.
  The next step is making Gump's NAnt support actually work and
  start building log4net.
