Mike,
Thank you very much for getting back to me on this as I very much appreciate it. I’m trying to look into this and trying to get information from the organizations whose networks we utilize here to see what information they are able to provide me on this as well. Thanks again for your help!

Subject: [Non-DoD Source] Re: [birt-dev] Question regarding BIRT and Evaluation for Use
Michelle,
I can answer from the perspective of the Eclipse Foundation. (I am the Executive Director.)
To the best of my knowledge, the Eclipse Foundation has never been directly involved in having any projects evaluated for approval for use on any government agency network. That doesn't mean that it's never been done. It just means that the foundation has not been involved. Since all of our projects are published as open source, and I am aware that at least some of our projects are being used in .mil settings, I do believe that some of these evaluations have been done by third parties. But unfortunately, I am not sure where we could point you for help on this specific request.
If Wim or others know of such an evaluation being done, I am sure they'll chime in.
AFAIK, the Eclipse Foundation project that has the strongest .mil community is OSEE. Someone on the osee-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx list might be able to help you.
Hope that helps.

Betreff: [birt-dev] Question regarding BIRT and Evaluation for Use
Hello,
I am a government contractor working at Cheyenne Mountain Space Force Station and the reason I am contacting you today is to try and find out if BIRT has been evaluated for approval for use on any government agency network? I know that may sound like a weird question to ask, but please hear me out. I am developing a customized Remedy solution for use in my department and I require the ability to generate comprehensive reports but I find that the Report Designer that is included with the BMC Remedy ITSM product is rather limiting as far as formatting and presentation capabilities. I read through their documentation and they happened to mention building customized reports using BIRT and after doing some research, I found that BIRT may be the tool that I need to generate the reports that I want to create. Since I work for a government agency, I can’t just download the tool and use it without it having been already evaluated and approved for use on the network. I have not been able to find any documentation stating that it had been evaluated for approval for use on my network. DOD does have reciprocity agreements with other government agencies though and I was wanting to know if you were aware of any government agency that may have evaluated this product for use on their network or are actively using it. If I am able to obtain a Certificate to Field for use, then I may be able to use this tool in my network which would be a great help for my project.
Thank you very much for your time!
