Mike thanked Michael for all his years of service to the Eclipse
Board and proposed the following resolution which was passed

&nbsp;<SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike Milinkovich indicated that Dennis Leung
had volunteered to participate in the Compensation Committee, Hans
Kamutzki had volunteered to participate in the IP Advisory Committee,
and that both Chris Aniszczyk and Jochen Krause had volunteered to
participate in the Finance Committee.&nbsp; Mike further indicated
that as sufficient notice had not been given to finalize these
appointments at the meeting, an electronic vote on the matter would
follow the meeting.&nbsp; Mike asked if any other Director had
interest in participating in a Committee.&nbsp;&nbsp; In response,
Paul Lipton volunteered to join the Compensation Committee</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US"><U>Upcoming Election:</U></SPAN>&nbsp; <SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike
Milinkovich advised the Board that the elections for the Board of
Directors run in the first quarter of the year.&nbsp; Mike indicated
that there would be a bit of a difference this year as there is no
longer a need to collapse the votes of the committer community due to
the recent changes in the Bylaws.&nbsp; Mike further advised that he
would follow with tradition have both the incoming and outgoing Board
Members attend the March 2012 Board meeting.&nbsp; </SPAN>

<P><SPAN LANG="en-US"><U><B>Committer Issues:</B></U></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">Ed Merks raised a concern that while the
Committer population has been advised that in just over a year CVS
would no longer be available, tooling for Git was not where it needed
to be.&nbsp;&nbsp; Ed indicated that there was frustration within the
community that existing CVS infrastructure, which works well and has
been used for a long time and has good tooling, is disappearing at a
time when Git tooling support really isn&rsquo;t ready.&nbsp; Ed
indicated that his personal experience was that he wasted days trying
to figure out Git.&nbsp; Chris </SPAN><FONT COLOR="#000000"><SPAN LANG="en-US">Aniszczyk
indicated that a transition at any time would be difficult and that
lessons had to be learned to migrate.&nbsp;&nbsp; Ed indicated that
it wasn&rsquo;t clear to him that the transition was worth the pain.&nbsp;
Boris Bokowski indicated that he would rather work on getting the
tooling ready for the deadline rather than move the deadline.&nbsp;
Mike Milinkovich asked John Kellerman whether there was any
possibility of getting people from IBM to help out with the usability
of the tooling.&nbsp; John Kellerman indicated that he thought it
possible and would check on that.&nbsp; </SPAN></FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000"><SPAN LANG="en-US">Ed also indicated that
forums and newsgroup synchronization was another source of
frustration.&nbsp;&nbsp; Ed further noted that now that he was in
Europe he was noticing just how much slower things are in Europe.&nbsp;
As an example, P2 repositories can be a real pain.&nbsp; Ed commented
that this was a concern as so much of our community is based in
Europe.&nbsp; Mike Milinkovich suggested that if there was a specific
problem encountered, that webmaster be contacted as they may be able
to resolve the issue; they have been able to resolve improving
performance in the past.</SPAN></FONT></P>

Mike highlighted that the Eclipse release train and packages
for Juno 2012 are to be build on Platform 4.2.&nbsp; Mike commented
that there was a general feeling that the Platform needed to move
forward.&nbsp; Igor Fedorenko commented that he had tried the most
recent version but that it wasn&rsquo;t stable.&nbsp; Mike
Milinkovich asked Igor if he had filed any bugs and Igor responded
that there were open bugs in relation to the issues.&nbsp; &nbsp;Paul
Clenahan asked if there was a summary of what the different projects
were dealing with.&nbsp; Mike Milinkovich advised that those
discussions were happening at the Planning Council.&nbsp; </SPAN>

<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike Milinkovich introduced a discussion the
approval of jQuery for redistribution at Eclipse notwithstanding the
Eclipse Foundation&rsquo;s inability to clarify the provenance of the
code.&nbsp;&nbsp; Mike advised the Board that an electronic vote on
the matter would follow the Board meeting.&nbsp; Paul Lipton
cautioned the Board from relying on the fact that others have
distributed a package when assessing the risk for the Eclipse
Foundation in doing so.&nbsp; Paul also asked that in the future for
additional details on the attempts made to resolve the provenance and
the results of those attempts be provided to the Board.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US"><U><B>Topics and Issues Report:</B></U></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike Milinkovich reviewed the Topics and Issues
Report with the Board.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Paul Lipton suggested that
the Eclipse Foundation use Hudson as a test case to do some marketing
around IP cleanliness.&nbsp; Mike Milinkovich indicated that the
Foundation had hoped to find a &ldquo;smoking gun&rdquo; in relation
to Hudson but that had not happened to date.&nbsp; He further
indicated that there was LGPL code and duplicative contained within
the code base that has now been removed and that the Hudson team had
found the IP review very helpful as they now had a much better
understanding of the Hudson code base.&nbsp;&nbsp; Ed Merks asked if
the addition of Git would make things easier for the IP Team.&nbsp;
Mike Milinkovich responded that he was not expecting that and if
anything there would be more contributions which could result in
increased workload.&nbsp; Mike added that one reason he was in favour
if Git was that it would encourage more contributions at Eclipse and
that would make for a healthier open source community.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</SPAN></P>

<a href="2011_10_exhibits/ExhibitJ.pdf">Exhibit J</a>.&nbsp; Mike also reviewed the Key Performance Indicators with the
Board.&nbsp; &nbsp;Boris Bokowski commented that it would be useful
to start reporting active and inactive Projects, much the way we
report active and inactive Committers.&nbsp; Mike Milinkovich
responded that the Foundation would do that and an inactive project
would be defined as a project that has had no commits in the last
nine months.</SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US"><U><B>What it Means to be an Eclipse Project:</B></U></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-US">Mike Milinkovich led a discussion on what it
means to be an Eclipse Project.&nbsp;&nbsp; Mike indicated that the
Eclipse Foundation believes that the manner in which it manages its
development process and intellectual property (IP) is a industry best
practice and would like expand the areas it works in.&nbsp; &nbsp;Mike
further indicated that historically there were four invariants when
selecting new projects:&nbsp; (i) IP Process;&nbsp;&nbsp; (ii)
Development Process; (iii) architecture (java and OSGi); and (iv)
licensing.&nbsp; Currently, the IP process and Development Process
are invariant.&nbsp; Licensing is no longer completely an invariant,
though the bar to deviate from our standard approach is high.&nbsp;
Following discussion, the following resolution was unanimously
passed:</SPAN></P>
<P STYLE="text-indent: 0.64cm; margin-bottom: 0.42cm"><SPAN LANG="en-US"><B>RESOLVED</B></SPAN>,
further to the Bylaws, the Executive Director is authorized to
approve open source software projects at Eclipse which meet the

expects to have a common build infrastructure available, but will not

was that most Projects would elect to use the common build

that it can be used to build the Platform.&nbsp; </SPAN>
