Allen, thank you for doing this. Regarding lack of personal access to anything but Linux, I'll take this as an opportunity to remind everyone that ASF committers (not just limited to Hadoop committers) are entitled to a free MSDN license, which can get you a Windows VM for validating Windows issues and any patches that touch cross-platform concerns, like the native code. Contributors who are not committers still might struggle to get access to Windows, but all of us reviewing and committing patches do have access.
It has long been on my TODO list to set up similar Jenkins jobs for Windows, but it keeps slipping. I'll try once again to bump up priority. --Chris Nauroth On 5/19/16, 9:41 AM, "Allen Wittenauer" <a...@apache.org> wrote: > > Some of you may not know that the ASF actually does have an OS X machine >(a Mac mini, so it¹s not a speed demon) in the build infrastructure. >While messing around with getting all? of the trunk jobs reconfigured to >do Java 8 and separate maven repos, I noticed that this box tends to sit >idle most of the day.
