- KJam is the fastest build system available today. It is the fastest for both full and incremental builds. It has the fastest dependency scanner of any current build system.
Sounds like hype. I've removed this until it can be substantiated. - furrykef (Talk at me) 21:08, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
Is "jam" an acronym for "Just Another Make"
[edit]I've always been taught that "jam" was an acronym for "Just Another Make", in which case this should be mentioned after the first use of the term. A lot of web pages seem to agree, but the only mention of the phrase I could find on the Perforce web site was a mailing list message. —FlashSheridan 02:02, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- I think we'd need a source that can trace it back to Perforce itself, since Wikipedia relies upon verifiable information. - furrykef (Talk at me) 11:35, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
- That phrase is used directly under the title on this page http://public.perforce.com/wiki/Jam Witherj (talk) 10:08, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
Is this product still around?
[edit]I went to the Perforce company website and there's no mention of Perforce Jam besides a historical document repository last updated over three years ago.[] There are also no formal end of life announcements or press releases that I can find.
