Hudson's new life
I went to a little going away party for
Kohsuke
Kawaguchi. He's the fellow that started (and has written most
of the code for)
Hudson, a
really great continuous integration server. It's totally extensible
and can do everything from automating builds, running test suites,
collecting benchmarks, monitoring development status/health to
monitoring any kind of external execution (like procmail). He
started working on Hudson as a spare-time personal project, then it
became his day job (one of his day jobs, anyway). It's changed the
way that I and many others do software development. This isn't the
end of Hudson, it's a new birth: KK's starting a new company around
Hudson. You can contact him at
his
personal site
