Description David Williams CLA 2013-04-17 18:06:44 EDT 
While discussing in bug 394793, the question of "how to" use a shared license came up. 

I know Kim did a good job of documenting it at 
http://relengofthenerds.blogspot.com/2011/01/implementing-shared-licenses-with-37m5.html

And, I did see it mentioned in the "new and noteworthy" of Indigo. 
http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.pde.doc.user%2FwhatsNew%2Fpde_whatsnew.htm

But, seems especially if it becomes "common" that there should be an official, section in Eclipse Help that mentions how to sue them ... perhaps just what's in the new and noteworthy of Indigo, though that seems a bit short. 

Just thought I'd document this need while I was thinking about it. 

I hope its helpful.
