                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3074
             Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio)
          Issue Type: Task
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: build
    Affects Versions: 8.0.0.Beta2
            Reporter: Nick Boldt
            Assignee: Nick Boldt
             Fix For: 8.0.0.Beta3


Max pointed out a flaw in our release process:

after a push to QE, jobs ought to be disabled to prevent unneeded respins, which make plugins LOOK different by virtue of their version number being incremented for no reason (github sources have not changed).

So, I've written a new python script to use the Jenkins api to post enable/disable requests for 1 or more jobs.
