Honestly, I'm kind of getting tired of hearing about how workflow will solve all of my problems and cancer. I'm glad that people like it, but honestly, for a new user of Jenkins, workflow is so overkill. It's great having an option for people who are build engineers and whatnot, but please don't overlook people who are tasked with setting up a build server and have very little experience with code. I'm sure there are things being worked on to make workflow easier, and that's great. I'm really considering other tools at this point because of workflow being pushed so hard. I've heard people say I shouldn't worry, but when you have several of the major contributors looking at workflow and fatal issues like [1] and [2] around for over a year affecting users, its pretty disheartening.

I’ll add some support to Slide’s comments below. I don’t want to be a Groovy expert programmer to get builds and continuous integration working. I personally like (as in very much like) the Build Flow plugin. It is just enough functionality with just enough programming access to some underlying functions to be perfect for our CI implementation (and my capabilities). But I would like to be able to have a Build Flow Build step (as in not just a job type) that I can use with other Build Steps. But I don’t think this is on anyone’s to-do list.
