Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Gump Wiki" for change \
notification.

The "Drafts/BoardReports/20130619" page has been changed by StefanBodewig:
https://wiki.apache.org/gump/Drafts/BoardReports/20130619

New page:
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 ==
The Gump PMC is currently in doubt whether the service is still needed/appreciated \
and will query the projects who's code is currently built by Gump over the course of \
the next quarter.

== 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 ==
The problems with accessing Maven Central mentioned in the last report has magically \
disappeared.  The best guess is Gump was hitting some misbehaving CDN nodes that have \
now been fixed.

In theory we could re-enable nagging mails now, but given the very low interest over \
the past years and given that not a single PMC has asked to re-enable mails Stefan \
Bodewig raised the question whether it might not be time to stop providing the \
service at all.  Feedback from the community so far was along the lines of "this \
probably is a service that you only miss when it is gone" but that we shouldn't keep \
putting time and energy into keeping the service alive just because it's there.

Stefan intends to contact the PMCs who's code is currently built by Gump and we'll \
discuss our next steps dependening on the outcome.  

The last quarter didn't see any activity at all.

== Infrastructure == 

Gump hasn't been reinstalled on the MacOS X server after the OS upgrade reported last \
quarter.  The FreeBSD jail has seen an OS upgrade as well and also need Gump to be \
re-enabled.

== 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.
