Build server

Some issues lately, got more capacity, it’s still accumulating builds in the queue pretty fast

Windows job (azure) is working, but still having trouble uploading the results so it is recognized as part of the build results (it is showing up in the right folder if you are logged in and look).

  • Juan is going to try and upload to a different location

  • Or we could poll to see the result

action: Jody to talk with Juan and Jeroen and see what is possible.

Log4J

Held up on PR reviews.

Configuration switch at runtime working!

Using Log4J internal code, but apparently stable over time.

Q: Does this support custom logging config in test cases

  • It should.

Request review of:

Release train

Release candidate waiting on log4j above.

  • Older GeoTools builds were not finding build.xml (think it had some logic to use ant rename.xml script).

Re-organize releases and EOL table

Don’t have a clear table that specifies end-of-life table.
