JarCastingCI Components
Most of CI (continuous integration) tools are rather difficult to operate. Many of them require a buy-in into their domain model (what's a project? what's a build step? what's a release?) and some of them even require an extensive use of UI to configure.
CI Components turns the model inside out by letting every project decide what their model and workflow should be like — described in code. To facilitate this, CI Components provides a set of components useful in building a CI setup, as well as a foundation to build more of these components.
CI Components is built upon OSGi so its most friendly to JVM-based projects, but its not at all limited to those.
CI Components can be both run standalone on its own customized Karaf container as well as deployed onto other, non-customized Karaf containers.
This is a very early version, expect major changes until 1.0 is released.

Contributing
Contributions of all kinds (code, documentation, testing, artwork, etc.) are highly encouraged. Please open a GitHub issue if you want to suggest an idea or ask a question.
We use Unprotocols C4 process. In a nutshell, this means:
- We merge pull requests rapidly (try!)
- We are open to diverse ideas
- We prefer code now over consensus later
