A couple of follow-ups on your post. re: "they’ll support a branch of Hudson, and not the open source releases." - We support 1.312 through a series of path releases that only contain the bug fixes. The fixes that go into the patches will be integrated into the main trunk. re: "I think It’ll be a good proposition for Java shops. There’s a huge market for Hudson for other platforms, but I’m not sure that Sun will be chasing it." - Hudson needs a Java container to run but it will support development in many platforms (and languages), and Sun supports that. For practical purposes, if you find a bug on Hudson, we want to be able to reproduce it in our container (GlassFish). If the bug is in, say, JBoss, we don't want to _commit_ to fixing JBoss (or finding a complicated workaround for it); but we will certainly try to address it. Hope this helps, - eduard/o Hi Julian.
