Kohsuke Kawaguchi, the main developer of Jenkins, will be passing through Boston on Tuesday Jan 28 and has agreed to give a talk to our group. This 2nd talk will be held at MIT (building E51 room 315). More details are given below: Boston Chapter of IEEE Computer Society and GBC/ACM 7:00 PM, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 MIT Room E51-315 How We Made the Jenkins Community Kohsuke Kawaguchi The Jenkins project has an interesting history. It started from scratch in my spare time, and has grown over time to boast 800+ open-source plug-ins developed by 300+ contributors from all around the world. There are several key ingredients, both technical and social, that enabled this model, and I think those ingredients are useful to other projects. In this talk, I'll discuss how the Jenkins project and the community work, what the ingredients are, why they help you attract more developers into your projects, and why it matters. Kohsuke Kawaguchi is the creator of Jenkins. He wrote the majority of the Jenkins core single-handedly. He has over 10 years of extensive experience in software development, ranging from Java to C++, .NET to x64 assembly, as well as system expertise on platforms including Windows, Linux and Solaris. This broad range of expertise was a key enabler in the development of various advanced features of Jenkins. Aside from Jenkins, Kohsuke was involved in JAXB, Metro web services stack, GlassFish v3, and RELAX NG at Sun Microsystems. He's also known for a large number of open-source projects, such as args4j, YouDebug, com4j, Animal Sniffer, Sorcerer, wagon-svn, MSV, Parallel JUnit extension. Today Kohsuke is an elite architect and developer at CloudBees, where he spends his days bringing Jenkins to the cloud and making the Jenkins core even better. See http://www.kohsuke.org/ for more information about Kohsuke. This joint meeting of the Boston Chapter of the IEEE Computer Society and GBC/ACM will be held in MIT Room E51-315. E51 is the Tang Center on the corner of Wadsworth and Amherst Sts and Memorial Dr.; it's mostly used by the Sloan School. You can see it on this map of the MIT campus.Room 315 is on the 3rd floor.
