Hi,

I am a firm believer in the benefits of CI, both for developers and
consumers of libraries. Sadly, there is no offering that I know of
which would allow an OSS project to get access to a hosted CI
instance.

If any of you would be able to provide a Hudson server for our
relatively low-profile builds, it would be greatly appreciated. If
resources are an issue, I can set up a slave dedicated to the
projects, although it wouldn't be online all the time.

Please reply if you can assist in any way with our CI initiative.

Thanks,

Robert

I was going to suggest Atlassian's Open Studio/JIRA Studio option, but
looking at it it doesn't seem to have Bamboo support for OSS projects.

http://open.jira.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa

You could follow the 'project request' link and ask them the question I guess...

They have finally gotten Bamboo it working in their 'Plugin Studio',
which is for OSS projects that are plugins for Atlassian software, but
they have an incentive to invest in the infrastructure there.

I suspect the main problem is that you actually require a fair amount
of resources to run CI, both storage and processing capacity, and
allowing CI has some potential security issues too - you can run
almost anything, theoretically - which is why there isn't really
anything around.

Robert already knows this but for everyone else, there is a TeamCity
instance available specifically for OSS projects at http://teamcity.codebetter.com.
It is almost exclusively .NET projects at the moment but that's just
because of the nature of the audience who reads CodeBetter.com. Java
projects are welcome and encouraged.

Also, there is a new sister project at http://youtrack.codebetter.com
to track issues for OSS projects.
