An interesting note, just mentioned by John Brock and Sharat Chander during their Kenai BOF…. sometime in the next few weeks, the Kenai APIs will be published for public use. Very cool. The APIs are RESTful, I believe they said, and will allow developers to pull data from any Kenai feature (bug tracker, wiki, members) and push data from anywhere to Kenai projects.
They also touched on the earlier announcement that Kenai will talk to the Hudson continuous integration server. Kenai will provide an actual Hudson server (you won’t need your own server). The feature will not be active by default. You will need to email the Kenai admins to request access to the private beta of Hudson support in Kenai. Sign me up!!!
They also announced a really cool Kenai feature to be released in the near future… voice over IP. Each project will have its own conference room where you can utilize an VOIP conference. It will be interesting to see how this works.
