| <p>This document provides guidelines for user groups that are based on |
| Eclipse Foundation projects and/or working groups. These user groups |
| may leverage one or more Eclipse Foundation brands (e.g., |
| Eclipse® , Jakarta® , or Tangle™ ).</p> |
| <p> |
| A User Group must first sign the <a |
| href="./EclipseUserGroupTrademarkLicenseAgreement-v1.0.pdf">Eclipse |
| User Group Trademark License Agreement</a> before using the relevant |
| brand. The agreement provides more detail about how the brand can be |
| used. |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Any User Group must have a focus on an Eclipse Foundation open |
| source project and/or a working group community.</li> |
| <li>A User Group can be a separate organization, or a subgroup of a |
| larger group.</li> |
| <li>User Groups should promote free software both within the group |
| and in relationships with other organizations.</li> |
| <li>User Groups should make an effort to foster a positive message |
| about both Eclipse and free software.</li> |
| <li>It is necessary for any User Group to have a contact person who |
| can act as a representative for the group and who accepts |
| responsibility to ensure that the guidelines are followed. If the |
| User Group has a president, then the president would be a good |
| person to fill this role. For example, this person will be |
| responsible to ensure that the User Group follows the requirements |
| regarding how to use the Eclipse brand.</li> |
| <li>User Group members are expected to follow the Eclipse Foundation |
| <a href="/org/documents/Community_Code_of_Conduct.php">Community |
| Code of Conduct</a> at functions and interactions. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>If a User Group is interested in having its own domain (e.g. |
| eclipse.xx), then please contact the Eclipse Foundation to discuss if |
| this is possible before registering the domain yourself.</p> |
| <p> |
| User Groups must follow the <a href="/legal/logo_guidelines.php">Guidelines |
| for Eclipse Logos & Trademarks</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <br>General questions or inquiries about starting a User Group or to |
| discuss a specific matter in relation to a User Group, please email <a |
| href="mailto:license@eclipse.org">license@eclipse.org</a> |
