Jenkins Trademark & Jenkinshosting.com by bubbleware technology

[Dave Gill]

I recently talked with Kohsuke in regards to the Jenkins trademark and my site jenkinshosting.com (see this relevant thread).  I'd first like to formally apologize as it was truly never my intention to cause any confusion with the official Jenkins brand (ie we are not associated officially with you guys).

I started jenkinshosting.com back in 2011 and we use to have it very clearly stated it was "by bubbleware technology".  However we recently went through a redesign and did not have this critical portion within our site afterwards.  And for that I do apologize.  I updated our site immediately after talking with Kohsuke so it is now present.  I don't think there has been confusion in the past that we are a separate entity than the official jenkins software (see blog post).

Kohsuke has mentioned he is personally ok with the name "Jenkins Hosting by Bubbleware Technology", however I want to make sure this is satisfactory with everyone involved with Jenkins.  I'll respond to any questions, comments, concerns and would be happy to attend the next IRC meeting on March 18th to further discuss.

Jenkins is an amazing piece of software and I really would like to keep in line with the goals and vision of its creator and all the developers who make it possible.  

Thanks everyone!!
