I find the Build Pipeline Plugin a great tool to setup a full deployment pipeline. Are you still working on this plugin, or has the project died?
I noticed that a lot of people (me included) ran into the problem of not being able to pass parameters to manually triggered downstream jobs. Is there a solution for this planned?
The manually triggered downstream jobs are a great part of the plugin, but rather useless if theres no way to retrieve informations from the particular upstream job, like the svn revision number that was used in the pipeline run.
I get around this by writing these values to a property file which i then copy over to the downstream job using copy artifacts plugin.
