[Paul Buck <paul.buck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

The Eclipse Foundation on behalf of the Eclipse IDE Working Group and its Development Effort Initiative (references below) is looking for a developer that is interested in entering into a service agreement to research how to modernize the approach to allow for secure installations of the Eclipse IDE, see issue #18 for more information. If you are interested, please reach out to me and provide the following information:

• A short overview of your experience and participation in the supporting projects,

• The proposed timeframe for the development effort,

• A successful outcome will provide concrete recommendations (plan) on how to address at least issues and topics reference in issue #18, code patches where practical

• An epic which is broken down into the individual issues across all the Eclipse projects* involved

• Explicit list of deliverables, including any interim deliverables,

• A proposed price, including whether the bid is being made on a fixed price or time and materials basis 

Please let me know by Monday, June 26th if you are interested in pursuing this opportunity. Also, I would be happy to answer any questions you might have, either by direct email or a Zoom call.

Regards ... Paul
