--------------------------------------------------

New page:
Apache Gump is a cross-project continuous integration server.  It is different from "usual" CI servers in that it expects the individual project builds to succeed; its purpose is to check the integration of a project with the latest code rather than a fixed version of the project's dependencies.  If you want a more traditional nightly build server Gump is not for you.  Use Gump if you want to know when a change in your dependencies breaks your project or when your changes break other projects.

Gump is written in Python and supports several build tools and version control systems.  The Apache installation of Gump builds many ASF projects and their dependencies.  It started in the Java part of the foundation but also builds projects like APR, HTTPd and log4net.
