Re: [imp-dev] [eclipse.org-members-committers] Reminder: Membership Meet

[Robert Fuhrer <rmfuhrer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, as I recall, we also went to github to gain more control (read: a lighter-weight process) over source control repository commits/committers. I'm not sure whether the latest changes affect that. I.e., if eclipse.org still needs to retain control over who gets commit rights, and how community-supplied contributions are vetted, then moving to github still makes sense to me.

So we went to github to get social, and now eclipse goes there too. What does this mean for us?

All,

 

This week the Eclipse Foundation has announced two very significant changes. These are important to Eclipse, and are important to all of you who work on or consume Eclipse technology.

 

1.       The Eclipse Foundation has started using Contributor License Agreements.

2.       The Eclipse Foundation will start to allow its projects to host their day-to-day development on social coding sites such as GitHub and Bitbucket.
