Hi,

My manual promotion process is being blocked and the thread dump shows this 
message:

Waiting to acquire /.../workspace/project-name : Executor #2 for hostname : 
executing project-name » promotion » Promotion #40

This is terrible since the build I need to promote is actually an older 
build, so I see no reason why it should wait for the current build to 
finish. I don't even use the workspace in the promotion process because of 
the risk of a race with the current build. My builds take several hours, 
and I cannot afford to have a promotion process that forces people to wait. 
Obviously, the build promotion plugin was built assuming all builds are 
very short.

Making the build shorter is not possible: synthesizing and simulating large 
chips takes a long time no matter what.

Other than the build promotion plugin, what do you people use to promote 
builds?

Cheers,
Martin
