Hi BibLibre is willing to take the hat. We will dedicate a machine for that. The machine should be up in the afternoon (in France) and chris will have a user on that machine so that every action he needs to do will be available for him. I propose that any release manager/maintainer could be granted an access to that machine. This may ease the pain for all. Hope that helps. -- Henri-Damien LAURENT BibLibre Le 28/02/2011 18:10, Chris Cormack a écrit :
Hi All
As you are probably all aware I have been running a hudson (now jenkins) instance on my linode server. It has been invaluable for catching errors and for helping to drive us towards better testing.
The problem I now have is that my linode instance is RAM starved with both bugzilla and jenkins on it. So I am looking for volunteers to offer a machine to host jenkins on. Ideally debian (running squeeze) as the packages for jenkins work really well.
I would need a login so I could set up and configure jenkins, and get it running all the tests again, but then id be happy to have sudo access revoked and let someone else maintain it. Jenkins is a pile of java, so it is RAM hungry.
Conversely I could leave it running on my linode, but others could chip in to help afford the upgrade to the next level to get more ram available.
Or any other suggestions?
Chris
PS the Jenkins story is an interesting one, and one worth reading about, a lot of how not to interact with a free software community lessons to be learnt there.
