| The DTP Councils provide a communication channel between the community-at-large and DTP committers, project leads, and the PMC. |
| We plan to hold open calls once a month for each Council as described below. Everyone is invited to attend, and the agenda |
| will typically be a free-form discussion around the Council theme. Through these Councils we hope to enable conversations |
| that might be difficult to start on the mailing lists or newsgroup, and make connections with and within the community to help |
| DTP meet the goals of all concerned. |
| <p/> |
| Each Council has its own <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/mail/main.html#datatools" target="main">mailing list</a>, where discussion and announcements will be posted.<br/><br/> |
