Eclipse Foundation Development Process Votes

Wednesday, June 1, 2022 - 20:00 by Wayne Beaton
If an Eclipse open source project team wants to include the community in a vote to, say, decide what functionality to include in the code base or decide whether or not they’re ready to do a release, that’s entirely up to the project team. If a project team wants to include the community in decisions (e.g., “do we implement X or Y?”), they’re free to do so. Personally, I think that it’s foolish to make community votes in such matters binding, but if that’s what a project team wants to do, they can have at it.
