They have features like deploy status api which they consider to be in beta. https://developer.github.com/changes/2014-01-09-preview-the-...

It makes sense for features like these to be not on GHE. But I am talking about features like new auth interface/webhooks etc which have been on github.com for more than half an year.

We made the unfortunate mistake of tying up too much of infrastructure to GHE and now are hostage to their whims. They give you back a canned response if you ask them about a missing feature in GHE through their support channel.

I guess it makes me mad that they are working on new features without fixing months old features which they consider to be unstable for GHE( if that is the case).

Everytime I see stuff like this it makes me angry. We use GHE at work and there is like 8-10 months lag till this feature gets into GHE. I think they have the typical problem of people wanting to work on new features and ignoring grunt work like porting stuff over to GHE. Did they get managers yet?

I haven't played with this much but I saw something similar being presented at dockercon this week for Jenkins.

Another option for self hosted ci that I would like to try at some point is drone which also supports docker images https://github.com/drone/drone

I personally prefer not handing my code out a third party app unless I absolutely have to.
