As some of you may know, we recently opened an issue on GitHub to discuss the problem of Cake addins becoming stale. This blog post aims to recap the discussion that was had within that issue, as well as the plan going forward.

The first thing that I want to re-iterate is that the Cake Team are not attempting to throttle or take over the development of Cake addins/modules in anyway. We love the fact that there is a thriving Community behind Cake, and we want to encourage that. However, we do have a responsibility to the wider Cake Community and we want to ensure that any addins and modules that are created, can continue to be maintained, should the original developer no longer be in a position to maintain it.

This the first in a series of blog posts which will attempt to explain how Cake uses a number of different online services in order to develop, build, and deploy Cake.

MyGet is a hosted package server that allows hosting of the following package types:

In addition MyGet also offers a build service to allow for the execution of build scripts.

Version 0.15.2 of Cake has been released.

Hot on the heels of the 0.15.1 release, we have just finished another bug fix release. This time, it was to correct two issues that were identified with the WiX aliases within Cake.

Both of these issues were identified and corrected by community members, and we would like to thank galpin and RLittlesII for their help.

Please let us know if you run into any issues with this latest release.

Full details of everything that was included in this release can be seen below.

Version 0.15.1 of Cake has been released.

Following the release of Cake v0.15.0 a couple days ago, a problem was identified with regard to the AppVeyor functionality of uploading artifacts and pushing test results.

Fortunately, Philo identified the issue very quickly and submitted a PR request to correct the problem.

As a result, v0.15.1 of Cake is now available.

Please let us know if you run into any issues with this latest release.

Version 0.15.0 of Cake has been released.

The Cake Team is happy once again to announce the latest version of Cake, 0.15.0. This release was intended to be a small release to tidy up a few small issues that had been identified in Cake prior to starting work on our port to CoreClr. However, once again, our amazing community contributors have stepped up with 6 Features, 6 Bugs, and 14 Improvements, being shipped in this release. Thank you to everyone who has helped with this release!

Patrik has been very busy working on the port of Cake to run on the CoreClr (you might have been following his work on the CoreClr Branch), and it is looking like that will be included in the next release of Cake, 0.16.0. While we are working on this next version, it is unlikely that we will be pulling in any other Pull Requests as we want to ensure that the transition goes as smoothly as possible. If you have any ideas about new features/improvements that you would like to see in Cake, please reach out to us in the Gitter Room prior to starting any work.
