Keynote Address and Opening Remarks
summary
Jenkins reports installs up 37% year‑over‑year, slaves up 54% and jobs up 76%, and the ecosystem hits 10,000 plugins. A new workflow plugin offers a Groovy DSL, durable checkpoints and restart so long‑running builds survive master or agent restarts. Other deliverables: Groupon’s CI using CI.YML and a MongoDB backend, Docker images and slave containers, an official Jenkins Docker image, LTS “train” releases, an acceptance test harness covering ~50 plugins, and remoting moved to NIO for X1K executor scale.
