I'm surprised they have such a good understanding of Jenkins' shortcomings. It's a good first step in fixing them. Although to be fair, this has been coming a long time as the post says; but having Cloudbees' CTO publicly acknowledging those is even better.
- oblio 8y agoHe's not only Cloudbees CTO, he's the original developer and architect. And before someone lambasts him for the Jenkins architecture, Jenkins/Hudson was created in 2005, when things were a lot different, and Jenkins managed to create an entire subgenre of software and lead it to the current day. Jenkins hasn't aged gracefully but how many software products from any category have even survived 5 or 10 years? :)
- mooreds 8y agoI can think of a number (Linux, Eclipse, vim, mysql, etc), but as a percentage of total software produced, it's very small.

- kohsuke 8y agoThank you for the encouragement. Indeed I wanted to capture the shortcomings correctly, because I truly believe in the power of the community to solve them. Looking at this thread, I feel my summary is largely validated. We've been working to solve those, and we'll step up even more so. Exciting times!!
