I hope you do not mind the current solution, as excluding 1.47s1
explicitly would be a lot more work because I cannot skip a build when it
already started (and I would have to inspect the *contents* of ij.jar as
downloaded from the ImageJ 1.x website to find out what type of version it
represents as there is no other mechanism by which I could possibly tell).
Also: the description (which is now updated after every build) as well as
the color-coded badges contributed by Jerome should make it much easier to
navigate the page
http://jenkins.imagej.net/job/ImageJ1-releases/> It might be a good idea, however, to run the unit tests on each daily

Unfortunately, this is not as easy as you might think: the unit tests are
a full-fledged Maven project, expecting ImageJ 1.x in the same form (as
you know, ImageJA is now nothing more than a Mavenized project following
the minor versions as published by you on
http://imagej.net/notes.html and
http://imagej.net/download/src/ (if those two disagree on the latest
version, the Jenkins job keeping ImageJA up-to-date refuses to update
anything).
So to support what you ask for, I would have to
- make a new Jenkins job
- let that job monitor the daily builds
- finagle the ij.jar into a pseudo-Maven repository
- let the unit-tests run on that faked Maven artifact
I will find those hours later this week to make that happen, but it will
be a different job from ImageJ1-unit-tests because those two jobs share
only the spirit, not the procedure.
Ciao,
Johannes
