[epf-dev] Clarification for donating IP to Eclipse

Hi Guys:

 

I need a clarification about donating intellectual property to Eclipse/EPF/BUP. I am a co-author of the book “Patterns for Effective Use Cases” and I would like to contribute some of the use case patterns to BUP as part of the use case writing guidelines. Of course Addison Wesley holds the copyright to the book. I have asked my editor if AW if AW is willing to yield copyright to Eclipse. They seem willing but have asked if it is sufficient to give Eclipse “right to use” or does the Eclipse foundation expect to “own” the copyright. This is also a question my co-authors have. What is the expectation here for IP donations?

 

Best regards,
