| <p>The 10th year anniversary of the Eclipse Foundation has filled me with joy and reflection. I've been grateful to be a part of the Eclipse community for a good portion of that time and honored to serve the committers on the Board for many years. We truly have a unique open source community at Eclipse that is comprised of a variety of parties, from individuals to academics to companies (spanning many industries if you take a look at the <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/org/workinggroups/">Eclipse Working Groups</a>). We need to keep all parties in mind, whether an individual or corporation, and make it easier for everyone to be successful at Eclipse.
|
| </p>
|
|
|
| <p>Since Eclipse has been around for over a decade, we have to keep moving forward to stay relevant. In the last couple years I've helped initiate our infrastructure by moving to
|
| <a href="http://mmilinkov.wordpress.com/2012/12/21/eclipse-says-goodbye-to-cvs/">Git/Gerrit</a>, push the Board to <a href="http://mmilinkov.wordpress.com/2013/06/20/embracing-social-coding-at-eclipse/">embrace social coding at the Foundation</a> as an option for development (see <a href="http://www.infoq.com/news/2013/01/vertx-eclipse">Vertx as a case study</a>) and helped push for a simplified the IP process with <a href="http://mmilinkov.wordpress.com/2013/06/17/eclipse-clas-are-live/">CLAs</a>.
|
|
|
| However, there are more things we can do to move things forward. <b>My main focus will be to continue to push the social coding initiative while maintaining our reputation for a quality development process.</b> It would also make the the Eclipse Foundation
|
| more adaptable to infrastructure changes in the future, further hone our development process and ensure that we're ready for
|
| another successful decade of changing the industry. I would also like for us to <b>step back and evaluate our development process to see how we can improve it</b>, by either removing parts of the process or through automation (e.g., could a special type of git-tag initiate a release review).</p>
|
|
|
| <p>To ensure Eclipse continues to grow and thrive I will particularly focus on:</p>
|
|
|
| <ul>
|
| <li>Continue to mentor and seek new projects at the Eclipse Foundation</li>
|
| <li>Push the foundation to invest more in <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/org/workinggroups/">Working Groups</a></li>
|
| <li>Encourage more projects to adopt the social coding initiative</li>
|
| <li>Push the Eclipse Foundation update and modernize the website</li>
|
| <li>Push the Eclipse Foundation to hire at least one full-time technical evangelist</li>
|
| <li>Ensure Eclipse processes are transparent and lightweight as possible</li>
|
| </ul>
|
|
|
| <p>On the whole, my goal has always been to make Eclipse thrive and be transparent as possible about the board's
|
| activities. I love bringing new projects to the Eclipse ecosystem and mentoring new committers. I will pay
|
| special attention to how we can make the Eclipse development process easier for smaller projects. In the end,
|
| I would be honored to represent you, the committers, for another term.</p>
