JetBrains and YourKit sponsor Jenkins maintainers with free licenses

[Alexander Brandes]

Hi all,

I'm excited to share that both JetBrains and YourKit are now sponsoring the Jenkins project by providing free licenses to core maintainers and developers.

JetBrains offers their All Products Pack (including IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate and other IDEs):

YourKit sponsors licenses for their Java Profiler:

If you’re a core maintainer or an active contributor with a meaningful impact on the project - whether through code, plugins, infrastructure, documentation, or other areas - you're welcome to request a license. Please reply to this thread to declare your interest and contact me via email (listed on my GitHub profile, visible when logged in): https://github.com/NotMyFault 

Make sure to include your GitHub handle and which license you’re interested in.

Thanks again to both sponsors for supporting the development of the Jenkins community.

Best regards,
Alexander Brandes, for the Jenkins Governance Board
