Bye bye Hudson, hello Jenkins!

The latest version mentions in the changelog: "Fixed a trademark bug that caused a considerable fiasco by renaming to Jenkins". More to thestory on http://kohsuke.org/2011/01/11/bye-bye-hudson-hello-jenkins/

Re: Hello, Jenkins
Wow.
Yeah, it makes a lot of sense to use the open source version rather than the Oracle version, so long as it is actively maintained.
FWIW, I've tried in the past to try and cooperate with awkward and unpleasant project owners, and "Jenkins" is probably better off with the fork. Oracle gets control over what it wants, and the open-source group gets control over the part they care about, so generally everyone is better off. Combining forces isn't much of an advantage if the "combined force" is constantly biting and spitting at each other.
