## Description 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 OpenSSL. ## Project Status Current Status: dormant - when things need to be done, they get done Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention. ## Membership Data Apache Gump was founded 2004-02-18. There are currently 16 committers and 10 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 8:5. ## Community changes, past quarter: No new PMC members. Last addition was Mark Thomas on 2014-12-03. No new committers. Last addition was Konstantin Kolinko on 2015-02-11. ## Project Activity The Tomcat community is the only one still using Gump actively and the only activity in Gump is around keeping the infrastructure alive and tweaking things for the benefit of Tomcat builds. We will certainly support any other project that wants to get the benefit of the early warning system for backwards incompatible changes Gump provides, but we are not actively recruiting projects. 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 continuously" philosophy. ## Community Health There isn't much happening but help is there when anybody needs it. Apart from foundation wide announcements or infrastructure team messages nobody has posted any message to the Gump mailing list or asked for a change who is not a member of the Gump PMC already for the last five years.

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 Some infrastructure activity, but really no changes compared to the last quarter. ## 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 continuously" philosophy. ## Activity We have migrated the content of the Moin Wiki to Confluence and it seems to be working fine, but we still need to change some links on our website before we can turn off the Moin instance. The infra team has set up a new VM for Gump and we situation is similar to that of the Wiki, we need to fix a few links, ensure everything is working as expected and can then turn off the old VM. The Tomcat and Forrest communities are still using Gump actively. ## Changes to the Roster All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure the ASF installations. The last changes to the PMC have seen Konstantin Kolinko and Mark Thomas join in November 2014.

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 continuously" philosophy. == Activity == The Apache POI project opted out of Gump. We asked the five remaining projects who still would receive notifications of build failures whether Gump was still useful for them.

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 continuously" philosophy. == Activity == This has again been a very quiet quarter for Gump. Around the time of the last report we realized the runs in vmgump had stopped for several weeks without anybody taking notice. This somewhat challenges the notion that "Gump seems to remain useful for the projects using it" usually stated here. By now the runs have been stable again and are watched more closely. In 2013 we asked the projects Gump was building back then whether they still want to use the service.

Work hasn't really started on it but is expected to be completed during the next quarter. As a result the Gump installation will get puppetized which will make creating future installations easier, should there ever be a need for them.

It started in the Java part of the foundation but also builds projects like APR, HTTPd and XMLUnit.NET. == Summary == Gump has learned to use msbuild/xbuild and NuGet to build .NET projects. Gump seems to create useful results for the few projects that use it. == 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 continuously" philosophy. == Activity == One of the projects (XMLUnit.NET) built by Gump recently switched to msbuild/xbuild as its build tool so we had to catch up. This also required us to support nuget's command line as a build step. Currently the support just provides what the project asks for - which is not the way Gump would be expected to work. Given the only project using it doesn't have any dependency on any other project built by Gump it is unlikely we'll make the implementation more "Gumpy". With the move of XMLUnit.NET there no longer is any project using Nant as a built tool left in the set of projects built by Gump. As more long running test projects have been added, we needed to change vmgump's configuration back to perform four runs a day rather than three. A single run of Gump currently takes about eight and a half hours. So the setting of "three" in fact meant that we would only manage two per day. === Mailing-List Statistics === general@gump.apache.org: Currently: 49 subscribers (no change in the last 3 months) (92 emails sent in the past 3 months, 138 in the previous cycle) commits@gump.apache.org: Currently: 20 subscribers (no change in the last 3 months) (94 emails sent in the past 3 months, 142 in the previous cycle) == Changes to the Roster == All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure the ASF installations.

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 continuously" philosophy. == Activity == One of the projects (Hamcrest) built by Gump recently switched to Gradle as its build tool so we had to catch up. After figuring out a way to integrate Gradle, we realized the new Hamcrest version wasn't compatible with the old one (it's a new major release, so that's to be expected) and we had to provide a packaged up version of Hamcrest 1.3 anyway. This means the only gradle build we've got doesn't do much more than validating Hamcrest can be built. This quarter was the first time a project tried the support for different git branches that has been present for some time.

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 continuously" philosophy. == Activity == The Gump builds have been updated to run on Java8 which causes a few builds to break (like the one of Google Guava) and forced us to replace dependencies with pre-packaged binaries in two cases. == Changes to the Roster == All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure the ASF installations.

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 continuously" philosophy. == Activity == With Ant and the Antlibs migrated to git and the Antlibs using git submodules it was necessary to add support for transparent handling of git submodules, this has been implemented in July and seems to work well enough. Mark Thomas was kind enough to upgrade vmgump from Ubuntu 10.04 to 14.04 which freed us from the need of a hand compiled git and provided us with a few more recent compilers and libraries.

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 continuously" philosophy. == Activity == Ant migrated most of its codebases from svn to git. When Gump switched to use the git location we had to learn the ASF's https git service was not compatible with git 1.7.x which still is the latest version available as package for Ubuntu 10.04 (which powers vmgump). A self-compiled git 2.0 on vmgump solved the problem. While Gump caught up with the change for Ant itself, the Antlib and Ivy builds are still using the stale svn uris. The Ant project is currently pondering the idea of using git submodules for the Antlibs projects, these are not supported by Gump, yet, which may require some changes in the git integration. == Changes to the Roster == All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure the ASF installations.

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.

It started in the Java part of the foundation but also builds projects like APR, HTTPd and XMLUnit.NET. == Summary == The set of projects has been stripped down to those who actively expressed interest in the service, we seem to be able to handle the reduced set well. == 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 == In late June we sent an email to the dev lists of all ASF projects that were built by Gump asking the communities whether they'd still be interested in the service. Of all communities only the Tomcat, POI, XML Graphics and Forrest dev teams asked to continue the Gump builds, log4net asked to drop the builds and the rest ignored the mail and was deemed not interested. Since mid-August Gump only builds the projects who signaled interest as well as their dependencies, nag mails have been turned off for all projects who don't want them. One result was immediate interest by the Tomcat and FOP communities to get their builds green again. == Infrastructure == We've given back our FreeBSD jail and now concentrate on a single installation on vmgump. == Changes to the Roster == All ASF committers have write access to the metadata that configure the ASF installations.

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 depending 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.

The project is in a state of a perpetual beta. There have been no releases. == Activity == Since early this year our self-written maven repository proxy faces random hangs when requesting artifacts from the central Maven repository which leads to build processes being killed after the timeout of one hour. As a result Gump runs currently take several days and we disabled nag emails as build failures were more often related to this problem than a change in the project itself. The underlying problem hasn't been fully analyzed so far. The dataset of projects built by Gump is maintained by 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. The Mac OS X server usually running Gump, adam.apache.org, has undergone an OS upgrade. The Gump installation is awaiting restoration. == 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 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 hick-ups 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 successfully 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.

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.

All in all the community is pretty small by now and it has been a long time since a new project has been added to the Gump runs because the project had asked for it - when we've added new projects over the past two years the driver has been the Gump community. It looks as if most projects are content with the existing vanilla CI options. == 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 == The infra team has provided us with a VM to run Gump on top of Apache Harmony but it is currently not used, we'll hand it back to infra so it doesn't waste resources. At one point in time a Gump run on the FreeBSD jail created many core dumps that filled up the disk space shared by all jails. Gump is now set up to not allow core dumps since nobody would want to look at them anyway. == Project Branding Requirements == We've updated the first sentence of the description to match the revised requirement. Thanks to David Crossley the main site logo now contains a TM and we are confident we will manage to add a TM to the logo Gump uses in its reports soon as well.

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".

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 surprise, 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.

Good news that a Gump user is using OpenJDK7 and reporting compatibility issues that resulted in changes to Ant.

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. == Development == While migrating to the new servers a few issues with Gump's database access have been identified and fixed. A new "builder" has been added that removes the boilerplate code previously required when installing a file to the local Maven repository. We've managed to build a few projects that have been failing for a long time in Gump - among them the ASF projects Forrest, Lucene, Cactus and big parts of Cocoon. We've also added builds for Solr, Tika and PDFBox. Some projects that have been failing for a long time and will likely never become buildable again have been removed. Also we've disabled a few builds (mostly running some sort of tests) that caused Gump to hang for an hour (Gump's timeout for build processes). == 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 == Our main machine vmgump has been replaced by a brand new virtual Ubuntu machine. The old database has been migrated to keep history. Since the new machine now runs OpenJDK6 rather than an "official" Java environment a few dependencies on Sun VMs have shown up in some project's builds. We used to have a Solaris zone which has now been replaced by a FreeBSD jail. The installation is working very well and we see almost the same build failures and successes on FreeBSD as on Linux. Many thanks to the infrastructure team for the support during the migration - and for all the other stuff you do. == Statistics == As of Sun, 12 Sep 2010 the ASF installations check out a bit less than 200 source trees (113 from the ASF repository) and try to build a bit less than 600 "projects". A complete Gump run takes more than nine hours on vmgump and eight on the FreeBSD jail.

Shane appreciates the great report and a lifetime of build services.

The board views the lack of releases as a non-issue for Gump.
Infrastructure: * No news is good news. Technical: * the installation is chugging along with active metadata maintenance. * we've updated the installed version of Maven to 2.2.1 which has tightened its verification process for plugins or so it seems. The current approach taken by Gump won't work anymore when we'd want to perform integration tests for Maven plugins themselves, but fortunately there currently is none followed by Gump that would be under active development. Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
Infrastructure: * the main Gump (virtual) machine vmgump has been down for a few days in November because of problems with its host, fortunately we have a Solaris zone so integration builds could continue.

Infrastructure: * many thanks to the infra team for upgrading the OS on vmgump. Technical: * the installation is chugging along with active metadata maintenance. Excalibur moving to Maven 2 builds and Tomcat restructuring its svn tree caused a few hiccups that have been resolved by now. Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
General discussion as to whether projects which don't have releases should be allowed to continue. In the case of Gump, folding into Infra was discussed as a potential alternative. No action was taken.
Infrastructure: * no news is good news. Technical: * during this quarter Gump has gained support for Bazaar, darcs, git and Mercurial - only git support is currently required because JUnit moved to github but we expect projects to pick up the new scm options at Sourceforge or Google Code sooner or later as well. * the installation is happily chugging along with active metadata maintenance Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
The board is pleased to see support for more SCMs.
Infrastructure: * no news is good news. Technical: * Gump has seen some development activity sparked by JUnit migrating to github but we don't expect too much to happen in the future. Gump is more of a service by now, not a typical development project - which is fine with us. * the installation is happily chugging along with active metadata maintenance Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
Question: Should this move to infra? Answer: would not solve any problem, will leave it as is.
Infrastructure: * we've added the Java packages Gump doesn't build but needs to the private svn repo (and consider putting them somewhere else later). For historical reasons there also exists a password protected collection of them in the public svn repo (we needed to get reminded of them by infra, thanks!) but these can be removed and we don't need the history either - the infrastructure team is aware that files and history can be deleted from the public repo at any time. Technical: * the installation is happily chugging along but no active development * Stefan has support for git/hg/bzr and darcs on his personal TODO list, but no other development seems to be planned right now Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.

Infrastructure: * no new is good news. Technical: * the installation is happily chugging along but no active development Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
Infrastructure: * no new is good news. Technical: * we finally have more than just basic Maven2 support working and now build Maven2 projects against the most recent code of their dependencies as well. There are still some issues to iron out like cases where one jar built by Gump is known by more than one id in the repository or a project really needs to build against an older version of its dependency (think intentional API breakage on a new major version). We also need to migrate more projects and then can start adding more projects if they want to. * Sooner or later we will need to add support for more VCSes like git or hg, so far we didn't have to add a project that uses anything but svn or CVS, though. Other: * Crypto: apart from some code that calculates MD5 and SHA1 hashes in the Maven Repository Proxy there isn't anything in Gump that would go near crypto at all. As far as we can see there is no need for any sort of notification in Gump's code base. * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
Infrastructure: * no news is good news. Technical: * the Maven 2 experiments on the Solaris zone have been encouraging but limited because many projects either don't build on Java6 or depend on projects that don't. Stefan plans to merge the experimental stuff into the main Gump line of development during the next quarter. * We've turned off the Kaffee build. We never got far due to various Kaffee internal problems and right now no Gump contributor has spare cycles to spend on keeping the build going. Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.

Infrastructure: * during the reporting time we've received a brand new machine to replace the old vmgump. Gump was switched over to the new machine with very little downtime, which really was awesome. Many thanks to the infrastructure team and Leo. Technical: * we've migrated a few more projects to use Maven2 builds and managed to get above 85% successful builds on vmgump, which is quite nice. Still we need to do something to make the Maven2 builds work the Gump way. Some experiments have been started in svn, but nothing that could be used as the real solution has been reached, yet. * Looking at the Gump zone[1], switching to Java6 would bring our success ratio down immediately. As usual some of the core APIs in Java have changed (this time it's JDBC again, as it was with Java 1.4 - in Java5 it was JAXP) and projects relying on them have been broken. This is nothing Gump could fix, but it gives a good indication of how widely supported (or not) Java6 may be right now in the projects we build. Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases. [1] http://gump.zones.apache.org/gump/test/project_todos.html
Approved by General Consent.
Infrastructure: * vmgump is in serious disk space trouble by now. Since we've started building Maven2 projects the number of things that get built successfully has become large enough to cause problems. On some days we can't finish the Gump run because we run out of disk. We need to hope a project with many dependencies fails every now and then 8-). Technical: * we've decided to become pragmatic WRT Maven2 and build non-leaf projects that use Maven2 against the repository jars instead of the latest builds. This at least allows the upstream dependencies of said project to build against the latest code. There are ideas how to make Maven2 support complete, but not enough time/people to see it implemented. Other: * Stefano left the Gump PMC for personal reasons. We want to thank him for his support and time in the past. * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
Jim asked about the disk space concerns noted in the report. Justin indicated that infrastructure did some cleanup for Gump folks, but discussions underway to procure more resources for Gump.
Approved by General Consent.
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. Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
Sander noted that the reported limits need more investigation since the VMware graphs[1] do not seem to show us hitting the limits. Justin will work with Infra to see if upgraded s/w will address this.

Infrastructure: * We had a little outage after the colo migration since vmgump didn't come up properly. Yet another reason to look forward to the beefer machine Justin hinted at last time. Technical: * Stefano has set up a Gump build running on top of Harmony[1] which currently is stuck by not finding a javac command line compatible compiler. * Much of the gump side of Maven2 support is done, Bill Barker now also wants to give the Maven side a try - we need to make Maven use the jars created by gump instead of those from any local or remote repository. There is hope. * sourceforge has found a new way to keep us moving stuff around. They are now moving the subversion repositories to virtual hosts per project, which means changing descriptors and deleting working copies on all Gump instances again. Won't be the last time. Other: * Sander Temme has been added to the PMC on 2006-12-01. * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases. Footnotes: [1] http://67.86.14.213:10000/gump/
Justin asked if we should dedicate more resources for Gump builds. A beefier machine would likely address any concerns. Justin will discuss this with the project and Infrastructure.
Approved by General Consent.
Infrastructure: * During the past weeks we've repeatedly run into disk usage problems, we are slowly but steadily outgrowing the resources provided by vmgump. We'll shortly engage in a discussion with the infrastructure team to see, what our options are. * We've informed osuosl and the infrastructure team that we'd like to give back gump.osuosl.org. Technical: * Maven2 support hasn't improved during the past quarter. To tell the truth, we don't have any people actively developing anything right now, so we don't expect this to change unless anybody jumps in. Gump is more and more moving into the direction of a pure infrastructure/service type of project with a handful of people maintaining it. This isn't necessarily a bad thing since Gump's code is pretty stable and - except for Maven 2 support - does what it is supposed to do. * All CVS locations for sourceforge projects have been fixed by now. Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.
Justin reported that he had relayed info on machines plans for VMWare to the Gump PMC as requested.

Infrastructure: * We are in the process of giving back gump.osuosl.org since we simply lack the people to take care of it. Technical: * Our biggest problem right now is the lack of support for and by Maven 2 which needs to get addressed if we don't want to see more Java projects become unbuildable. * SourceForge CVS has been having problems since late March, when anonymous CVS dropped out of sync with the private repositories. In mid-may the site moved from having one CVS server for everything, to having a separate hostname for every project's repository. For Gump, this means that every sourceforge-hosted project needs to have their own repository file and the existing builds need to be completely purged. Currently only a few projects have been migrated due to their ubiquitousness (JUnit) or due to the effort of the project members themselves. Obviously, only project members who are also apache committers can do this unaidedely, which pushes more work onto the gump team. Until a full migration takes place, sourceforge-hosted projects will be built using a source snapshot of early May. This is going to lead to problems the longer the migration is put off. Other: * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in svn. * no releases.

Tabled due to time constraints.
Infrastructure: * Sander Temme has installed Gump on one of the donated Macs, see http://clarus.apache.org/ * gump.osuosl.org is still more or less dormant because we couldn't find the time to install a Gump instance there.

Infrastructure: * we are using vmgump and our zone at helios, we managed to get Mono on vmgump and Kaffe on helios working well enough to get reasonable results. * gump.osuosl.org is still more or less dormant because we couldn't find the time to install a Gump instance there. * metadata have been moved to svn, we are a svn-only project now.

The reasons for this are not totally clear to us - having at least three PMC members (Leo, Adam and Stefan) go through major changes IRL hasn't helped.

Infrastructure: * we've moved off of Brutus and are now spread over three machines. vmgump.apache.org is a VMWare instance on Loki, gump.zones.apache.org a Solaris zone on helios and gump.osuosl.org a MacOS X server of the Oregon State University that we can use. Many Thanks! * vmgump will become our primary machine for now, we are slowly progressing to the state of stability we had on brutus. * the other instances are not yet fully up and running. Technical: * Work continues on Gump3. It is slowly and steadily progressing into a codebase that does useful stuff. Other: * Nick Chalko has taken a leave of absence from the PMC, we hope to get him back next year. * still all Apache committers have access to metadata in CVS. * no releases. * There are three proposed Summer of Code projects for Gump, all focused on Gump3 development. Mentors include Scott Sanders, Adam Jack and Leo Simons. Since Gump is one of the few python-based projects in the programme, we expect some of these will be successfully followed up on.
Approved by General Consent.
Brutus: * access to brutus has been granted to Brett Porter * access to brutus has also been granted to David Crossley, Reinhard Poetz and Dave Brondsema to use brutus for Forrest * we are rather low on disk space. This is no emergency situation yet, we are dealing with it, so no action is required. If we want to expand the variations of Gump builds to more VMs, this will become a problem, though. * we've received a few requests for nightly builds on Brutus but not acted on it so far. One reason is the disk space problem, another that we consider Brutus "insecure as hell" (to quote Leo). Since Gump downloads and runs scripts from all over the world it could potentially taint the nightly build system as well, even if we are doing our best to prevent this (they don't share anything but the JDK installation). Technical: * We are happily building C based projects using configure/make by now. On our roster are APR, HTTPD and Log4CXX so far. * There is slow progress on a Gump redesign that aims at making Gump less monolithic and using Python like Python instead of Java. Other: * no PMC changes, still all Apache committers have access to metadata in CVS, no releases

It was also noted that Gump has progressed to the point where it can build APR and HTTPD.

Gump code was migrated to SVN[1], with Gump metadata continuing to remain in CVS[2] (to be less of a community barrier, until SVN usage has matured as the norm with ASF-wide). At this same time 'traditional' Gump (the Java/Shell/XSLT/Perl combination) was finally archived. Python Gump is re-structuring itself (within SVN) to attempt to become more intuitive to new users. The Gump PMC voted to allow 'Gumped artifacts' to be publically available in a repository. These artifacts are to be specifically marked as '-gump' so as to attempt remove/reduce any confusion with releases. Also, each directory listing in the repository is to be marked with a disclaimer explaining that the contents can not be trusted, and are not releases. [3] The Gump PMC voted to grant 'root access' to ajack@apache.org (a non-member) to Brutus. Since Brutus is managed by the Gump team (and is standalone/untrusted) infrastructure felt this did not constitute a security concern. After some discussion on community@apache.org regarding the need for PMC oversight of mailing lists, the Gump PMC voted to sponsor python@apache.org. The intent is to discuss "Python w.r.t ASF", and allow the various Python projects to collaborate. Unfortuantely, the request has sat (seemingly untouched) in JIRA since August 4th 2004. [5] Nicola Ken Barozzi has resigned from the Gump PMC. We want to thank him for his past contributions and are happy that he still wants to keep in touch by retaining his committer status. Gump now can generate XHTML output directly without the need of a Forrest webapp (although still a supported option). This reduction in dependency is intended to ease Gump installation (and hence adoption) by new users. Gump has received some technical improvements recently. Gump was migrated from Python 2.2 to Python 2.3 (and benefits from many new language features). Multithreading support for CVS|SVN downloads removed latency delays from Gump's total run time. MySQL integration (for historical results data) is currently live. RDF is generated describing projects and their interactions (at dependency level) using a work-in-progress Gump Ontology. Gump's current focus is on opening itself up to more developers (via documentation) and new users. As part of reaching beyond Java Mono 1.0 has been installed on Brutus and we are collaborating with the NAnt[4] community to take on .NET projects. Along these lines, and with little to no help from the Gump community, Peter Janes took Python Gump and integrated it with Perforce [6]. He supplied patches that added Perforce repository capabilities to complement CVS and SVN. This patch included documentation [7] [8] and was very high quality work. Gump now build artifacts and stores them in an online repository, and (as such) can build projects using historical artifacts in it's repository. This will allow Gump to smooth out the problems of 'prerequisite failure' Further, Gump also works with Depot to download artifacts from artifact repositories to automate package processing, and/or allow cascaded Gumps. None of this code is well tested/mature at this point, and some problem reports exist.

We've been very happy playing with the new machine and brutus has been turned into the "official" Gump instance, i.e. the one that is sending nightly nag mails when things go wrong and that people use as reference. Many thanks to Sam Ruby and Leo Simons who provided personal infrastructure for this purpose in the past. The speed of Brutus combined with a new way to generate the website dynamically allows us to run Gump more than once per day and has already led to some new uses, like sending out "good news nags" when things are no longer broken. Notifications are also now sent "when first detected" (as well as on the nightly 'official' run) which can dramatically shorten the detection/discussion/resolution cycle. Gump has assisted in detecting a number of issues, including a big one with log4j deprecation which raised excellent discussion and awareness on Apache's and "good" deprecation/release policies. More information is available on Gump's Blog[1]. Gump has started to successfully build its first live project using Maven, we hope to extend this success to Geronimo soon. The main integration issue is that of 'artefact id' (how a collection of code is identified). This is good practical community work; a precursor to an (automated/shared) Apache Repository[2]. Gump is starting to see more 'personal Gumps', as folks install Gump for their own private (and public) projects.

Stefano lamented lack of participation time on his part. No other comments.
Most of the past few weeks has been filled with infrastructure stuff. We've successfully migrated web-site, CVS module, bug-tracking and the mailing list to gump.apache.org - many thanks to the infrastructure team for making the transition that smooth. All Apache committers have been Gump committers with the old setup and this still remains true. We want to get as many people involved as possible when it gets to maintaining the project metadata. This is the reason that we've been sticking to CVS for now since we can reach most Apache committers that way. Gump will probably be one of the last projects that make the transition to Subversion. Work on the project bylaws has started and we expect to have them ready for the next board meeting. Gump is unique when it comes to committer status so we'll have to put some thoughts into the definition of that role. Gump has been quite successful in pointing out problems in some builds recently and we are happy that most of them have been resolved between projects easily. Our biggest problem right now is building Avalon, but this may be due to the fact that Gump is using a different build system than Avalon more than anything else. Once Gump supports Maven as a build option, things may become easier for Avalon. We continue improving the Python rewrite of Gump and have come quite a long way already. Since nobody of us is anywhere near a Python guru, we may be doing things far more complicated than necessary. Any help is welcome. 8-) The short-to-mid-term future steps for Gump are * get dedicated ASF hardware to run Gump on - [currently working on getting it running on Moof but we are really looking forward to the new gump-dedicated machine]. * expand Gump's reach beyond building Java projects. * improve the way Gump works by trying to find an computationally feasible way to nagging the offender and not the offended, improve the usability/effectiveness of gump reports, find ways to increase adoption by making social pressure of nagging more effective and ease the effort required for users to update their project descriptors. * start thinking on how to provide feedback for legal dependencies checkings
