Monday, October 27, 2014 - 08:00 by Mike Milinkovich

Wednesday, May 7, 2014 - 08:00 by Mike Milinkovich

I am pleased to announce that the dates and venue for EclipseCon North America 2015 have been selected. We are returning to the Hyatt Regency Burlingame, the site of our 2014 event, the week of March 9-12, 2015. It’s great to be returning to the Bay Area once again.

The Eclipse Foundation’s 10th Birthday

Monday, February 3, 2014 - 16:51 by Mike Milinkovich

Today the Eclipse Foundation celebrates its 10th birthday. Boy, time flies when you’re having fun!

It is very hard to put your mind back to an event in the past. I don’t mean simply remembering the event; that’s easy. What is hard is to recall what the environment was really like at the time, without the context of all of the subsequent history.

JavaOne: The Eclipse Inside

I spent last week at JavaOne in San Francisco, and I thought I would share a few things about the event that might be of interest to the Eclipse community.

Embracing Social Coding at Eclipse

Thursday, June 20, 2013 - 10:30 by Mike Milinkovich

The Eclipse Foundation is going to start allowing its projects to host their mainline development on third party forges such as GitHub, and (eventually) Bitbucket. This means that an Eclipse project will be able to leverage the great development tools provided by those vendors. The first project that we are going to work with on this is Vert.x, which has been hosted on GitHub since its inception. Our intent is to start small, and continually improve this program and our support of it.

Community Review of the Eclipse Public License

Friday, May 31, 2013 - 11:37 by Mike Milinkovich

The Eclipse Public License, and its predecessor the Common Public License have been in existence for around 12 years now. A lot has changed since the EPL’s introduction in 2004, and the time has come for a review to ensure it remains current. As a result, we are going to kick off a public process to solicit input on the license, and discuss possible revisions.

The EPL as a Platform License

Tuesday, April 9, 2013 - 08:45 by Mike Milinkovich

Yesterday’s announcement of the OpenDaylight project has gotten very wide coverage. It looks like a well-done announcement, and the industry support for this important new collaboration is stellar. Yet another great example of how open source is facilitating collaboration on new and innovative industry platforms.
