Many not updated projects

Hi guys

When I browse projects, in most cases I can see that they are not updated for months or even years. Do you have some technical issues?
Do you plan fix this situation?

Regards

Thx for updating my projects.
However I can see more dead projects around. Just search for 'linux' and visit first page results. Some are not updated even for 4yrs.

Any info about that?

Well, there is a lot of info here:

  • Linux Kernel: Needed new jobs created.
  • OpenSUSE Linux: Needed failed jobs cleared out and new jobs created. 15 of the 41 enlistments are still failing.
  • Linux PAM: Existing enlistment was outdated. Found new repository on GitHub
  • Linux NTFS: Needed new jobs created.
  • Mandriva Linux: Project was disbanded. No code available. Project deleted from OH.
  • Gentoo Linux: Needed failed job cleared out and new jobs created: The Historical repository is now empty and was removed from the enlistments
  • Alt Linux: Needed new jobs created
  • Canaima GNU/Linux: 59 out of 64 repositories are failing and probably need new enlistments
  • Source Mage GNU Linux: Needed new jobs scheduled. Up to date
  • ArchLinux -- both enlistments had failed, new Fetch jobs have been scheduled

That's just the first page of 2,100 that match the search term Linux. We rely on our user community to keep enlistments up to date. That said, please let me know if there are specific projects that have caught your attention and we can look into them.

Thanks

Thx Peter.

I understand your explanations, yet my observations (based on my projects) are that for a last 7-8 months projects are being updated automatically very rarely if at all. Now most of my projects is outdated for almost a month. Last time they were updated manualy (see ramprasath's answer above) as most of them was 3-4 months out of date. I don't remember to have such problems in the past.

Hi Michał;

Indeed, you didn't have these problems in the past. When we moved off our bare-metal crawlers onto our virtualized servers, we were processing updates beyond our wildest imaginations. In the 18 months since, we've added a fair amount of new code and have introduced a series of small changes that have broken the efficiency of the Job Scheduler, which finds projects and code locations in need of updates.

We are on the cusp of deploying a significant architectural upgrade. See Open Hub Scheduled Downtime. Following this upgrade, we will be able dig into our Job Scheduler and uncover the logic flaws that had been introduced. This is a death by a thousand cuts situation.

I see.

Then I wait for more news on the blog.

Thank you.
