licensing of the Paho Project in its entirety under the <A HREF="/org/documents/epl-v10.php">Eclipse | |
Public License</A> (EPL) and <A HREF="/org/documents/edl-v10.php">Eclipse | |

<P><SPAN LANG="en-US"><U>Committer Member Issues</U></SPAN></P> | |
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">John Arthorne introduced a discussion on | |
Committer issues, focusing initially on the transition to Git. | |
John highlighted the fact that many Project are moving to Git | |
and identified a concern that Git makes it very easy to delete or | |
re-rewrite the history of your source code, even by accident. | |
This in turn makes it very difficult for people that want to do | |
updates on a historic version of the code. John asked whether | |
the Board thought that the Eclipse Foundation should leave this up to | |
the individual committers to take action to ensure that the source | |
code history is safe, or whether it was something that the EMO should | |
take control of the issue? </SPAN> | |
</P> | |
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">Chris Aniszczyk indicated that he believed that | |
the default should be that you cannot change history, and that change | |
should not be permitted unless an intellectual property issue arose, | |
for example. Paul Lipton added that the value of | |
Eclipse’s intellectual property is diminished if we leave holes | |
open that enable history to be changed. Dennis Leung | |
indicated his support to make it difficult to make changes to the Git | |
repository and suggested that any individual wanting to make a change | |
should have to apply for the ability. Paul Lipton added that | |
that the clarity of the intellectual property is a primary value | |
proposition at Eclipse, and because of this if there was an exception | |
granted, then there would need to be a record of that exception. | |
Mike Milinkovich indicated that his recollection was that the only | |
time that the Eclipse Foundation has changed history is if an | |
intellectual property issue had been found. It was the | |
consensus of the Board that the EMO should prevent re-writing of | |
history in the Eclipse Foundation’s git repositories unless | |
express permission was sought, such permissions to be considered on a | |
case by case basis. </SPAN></P> | |
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">John Arthorne also highlighted that there are | |
private branches on Git where it would be useful to allow people to | |
re-write history in their own branches. Mike Milinkovich | |
suggested that defaults are set such that history can’t be | |
changed in the main branches, with some flexibility to be allowed in | |
private branches. He suggested that the Committer | |
Representatives work with the EMO to create the defaults to | |
accomplish this goal. Chris Aniszczyk also suggested that an | |
audit be conducted on the Projects to ensure that the defaults are | |
property set. Mike agreed, indicating that he would ask the | |
webmaster to run some scripts to check that Projects are implementing | |
the necessary defaults. Paul Lipton asked whether we have a | |
situation today where some existing Projects on Git may have altered, | |
either intentionally or unintentionally, their history? Mike | |
Milinkovich responded that it was possible. John Arthorne added | |
that within CVS it could have happened as well with some effort, but | |
there would be no record. With Git, it could have happened, but | |
we would know. The Board passed the following resolution | |
unanimously:</SPAN></P> | |
<P STYLE="margin-left: 1.27cm; text-indent: 1.27cm"><B>RESOLVED</B>, | |
that the Board directs the EMO to ensure that the history of the | |
Foundation’s source repositories cannot be changed in “main | |
branches”, with flexibility in private branches. Any | |
exceptions would have to be requested by a PMC to the EMO. A | |
“main branch” is defined as any branch from which | |
releases are built. Any exceptions would have to be requested | |
by a PMC to the EMO.</P> | |
<P>Ed Merks highlighted that IT outages on weekends were an issue. | |
Ed asked if it was possible to empower someone in Europe to help. | |
Mike Milinkovich responded that the Foundation has wanted for many | |
years to have more staff in Europe, but that limited funds have | |
prevented the Foundation from doing so. He added that the EMO | |
is actively looking at alternatives. John Arthorne | |
suggested looking at what the Apache Software Foundation is doing. | |
Mike Milinkovich suggested opening a bug on the subject and copying | |
him on it. John Arthorne indicated that a committer that | |
had suggested that not only Strategic Members should be able to | |
access Webmaster 24 hours a day. There was a general consensus | |
that this was not reasonable. Mike Milinkovich noted that few | |
Strategic Developers have been taking advantage of the existing | |
program, and indicated that some work needed to be done to get the | |
existing process working better. He also added that the | |
Foundation would consider starting to talk about whether it opens the | |
“circle of trust” to some non-Foundation employees in | |
different time zones. | |
</P> | |
<P STYLE="page-break-after: avoid"><U>Oracle/Sun TCK Agreement</U></P> | |
<P STYLE="page-break-after: avoid"><SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike | |
Milinkovich indicated that the time had come to decide whether the | |
Eclipse Foundation signs the Agreement. John Kellerman provided | |
an overview of IBM’s concerns related to the Agreement. | |
Janet Campbell noted that the Eclipse Foundation’s counsel and | |
external counsel do not believe that the Agreement conflicts with the | |
<A HREF="/org/documents/epl-v10.php">Eclipse Public | |
License</A> (EPL). Dennis Leung pointed out that the terms of | |
the Agreement before the Board are the same terms that others in the | |
ecosystem have been given, including commercial entities. John | |
Kellerman asked what level of vote was required. Janet Campbell | |
responded that a majority vote was needed. </SPAN> | |
</P> | |
<P STYLE="page-break-after: avoid"><SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike | |
Milinkovich commented that finalizing the Agreement before the Board | |
was done as a service to some Projects to allow them to certify to | |
the TCK and that the Eclipse Foundation did not have a strong | |
perspective on executing the Agreement. Mike added that the | |
Board should consider what level of review and approval should be | |
required to allow additional projects to use the TCKs and proposed | |
that a super majority vote be required. Such a vote would be | |
triggered at the request of the PMC of the Project. Ed Merks | |
questioned whether the Board wanted to review this type of decision | |
on a case by case basis. Paul Lipton questioned what the | |
implications would be on the user. Mike responded that for some | |
users, this would be considered a good thing in that they would get a | |
compliant application. Mike added that for an application | |
server such as Virgo, having a compliant solution would help them. | |
</SPAN></P> | |
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US"><U>Enterprise Bundle Repository</U></SPAN></P> | |
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">John Kellerman provided an overview of an IBM | |
proposal to host OSGi bundles at Eclipse in support of the OSGi | |
ecosystem, the related slides for which are attached as <a href="2012_06_exhibits/ExhibitE.pdf">Exhibit E</a>. | |
John indicated that IBM is now proposing to have Eclipse Marketplace | |
point to templates, and that the existing bundles would continue to | |
exist where they exist. Paul Lipton asked why the change. | |
John responded that IBM was concerned about distributing non-IP | |
cleared material from Eclipse. He also said that it would | |
relieve space and bandwidth concerns. The builds would happen | |
on individual’s machine. Paul Lipton asked if it would be | |
clear to individuals downloading that they are not getting the | |
material from Eclipse. John Kellerman and Pat Huff indicated | |
that it is not currently as clear as it could be that the material | |
originating from Eclipse Marketplace has not been IP cleared. | |
Paul Lipton indicated that he agreed. John concluded by | |
indicating that he did not believe that there was anything related to | |
the proposal that the Board was required to vote on. </SPAN> | |

<P><SPAN LANG="en-US"><U>Management Reports</U></SPAN></P> | |
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">Chris Larocque provided an update on the | |
Eclipse Foundation’s operations and finances. Mike | |
Milinkovich provided an update on EclipseCon 2013, the related slides | |
for which are attached as <a href="2012_06_exhibits/ExhibitG.pdf">Exhibit G</a>. Mike indicated that it | |
would be held at the Seaport Hotel and Trade Centre in Boston, MA | |
March 25-28, 2012. Dennis Leung asked what the feedback was on | |
having the event on the east coast. Mike Milinkovich | |
responded that the feedback was generally positive. Dennis | |
asked what the other candidates were. Mike responded that they | |
included Miami, Philadelphia, and Atlanta, adding that the Seaport | |
offered great rates. </SPAN> | |
</P> | |
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike added that the semi-annual training series | |
is gearing up, and that the Eclipse Foundation is getting ready for | |
the Juno launch. </SPAN> | |

<P LANG="en-US">Mike Milinkovich provided an overview of the Eclipse | |
Open Source Developer Report, the related slides for which are | |
attached as <a href="2012_06_exhibits/ExhibitH.pdf">Exhibit H</a>. Mike commented that the Eclipse | |
Foundation runs the survey itself using survey monkey every year and | |
gets great press related to the survey. | |
</P> | |
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike Milinkovich provided an overview of the | |
Eclipse Foundation Membership and Key Performance Indicators. | |
Mike highlighted the fact that the number of Projects using Git at | |
Eclipse has now surpassed 50%. Ed Merks expressed a concern | |
that Git tooling was still very poor.</SPAN></P> | |

the Eclipse Platform and Webtools will have moved over to the CBI. | |
</SPAN> | |
</P> | |
<P STYLE="page-break-after: avoid"><SPAN LANG="en-US">John Arthorne | |
indicated that the Eclipse Platform was having difficulty getting | |
their release out this year because they are having difficulty | |
testing, primarily on Windows and Mac where the hardware isn’t | |
to the level that the Linux boxes are. Mike Milinkovich | |
responded that he had no idea that the issue existed and commented | |
that if the Eclipse Foundation could solve this issue by buying a | |
faster Windows box, then the Foundation should pursue that solution. | |
Mike further asked that if there was a bug on the issue to please | |
copy him on it. </SPAN> | |

Location Industry Working Group Proposal, the related slides for | |
which are attached as <a href="2012_06_exhibits/ExhibitN.pdf">Exhibit N</a>. Mike indicated that in this | |
final case, there were quite a few existing assets looking for a new | |
home with a lot of companies and organizations already involved. | |
Mike added that the existing organization was dissolving and that | |
provided a resulting opportunity for the Eclipse Foundation. | |

<P STYLE="page-break-after: avoid"><SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike | |
Milinkovich commented that IBM ships many products based on Apache | |
code that is encumbered by all the obligations of the TCK before the | |
Board and more. Pat Huff responded that that was true. | |
Mike further commented that Oracle wants EclipseLink to certify | |
Eclipse and that not renewing the TCK Agreement would impact Oracle | |
as well. They would need to take EclipseLink elsewhere. | |
Dennis Leung commented that it would have to be a catastrophic | |
event. Mike added that the TCK terms before the Board are the | |
terms that govern the entire Java ecosystem. Dennis Leung added | |
that he believed it has always worked this way and that while Oracle | |
was flexible on the term of the Agreement, the remaining terms are | |
the same for everyone. Paul Lipton commented that there was | |
risk, as there always was, but that it appeared to him to be quite | |
small. Paul added that it appeared to be significant value and | |
small but non-zero risk. Steve Winkler added that approval | |
would be on a case by case basis and so risk was limited from that | |
standpoint as well. </SPAN> | |
