Hello PKI developers,

First, I would like to thank everyone for your contributions to the PKI project. As a PKI team, we strive our best to keep the project clean, tidy and functional. Implementing CI and gerrithub (for code review) were some of the steps taken to keep the patch submission easy & clean. A bot (hosted on jenkins) was created to post comments to the patch you submitted on Gerrithub.

However, we decided to decommision Gerrithub and Jenkins as of 09/21/2018 (Friday) and move to Github Pull Requests.  Jenkins will be shutdown on 09/21/2018 and you'll not be receiving comments (or required acks) to your submitted patches.

The primary reasons for the decommission are:

* Easier to track issues and commits since our upstream project is hosted on Github

* Easier to review changes 

* Reliable CI results on single patch with multiple commits

* The extra effort to maintain these infrastructures

You can read more about gerrit vs github PR here: http://www.dogtagpki.org/wiki/Gerrit_vs_GitHub_Pull_Request

It takes a few steps to submit your patch as a PR. The step-by-step instructions to submit patches via Github Pull Request is available here: http://www.dogtagpki.org/wiki/GitHub_Pull_Request

If you have any concerns with this decommission, please feel free to reach out.

Regards,

Dinesh
