| <h1>Introduction</h1> |
| <?php |

| generate_header("«INSERT PROJECT NAME»"); |
| ?> |
| <p>The «INSERT PROJECT NAME» is a proposed open source |
| project under the <a href="/technology/">Eclipse |
| Technology Project</a>.</p> |
| <p>«BE SURE TO UPDATE THE PAGE TITLE IN THE |
| <head><title>...</title></head> FIELD»</p> |
| <p>This proposal is in the Project Proposal Phase (as defined in the |
| <a href="/projects/dev_process/"> |
| Eclipse Development Process document</a>) and is written to declare its intent |
| and scope. This proposal is written to solicit additional participation and |
| input from the Eclipse community. You are invited to comment on and/or join the |
| project. Please send all feedback to the <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/thread.php?group=eclipse.technology">http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/thread.php?group=eclipse.technology</a> newsgroup. |

| |
| <p align="left">«SELECT A DESCRIPTION SIMILAR TO ONE OF THESE |
| BELOW... IF THE PROJECT'S EVENTUAL GOAL IS TO CO-EXIST WITH OTHER |
| ECLIPSE PROJECTS YOU MIGHT USE SOMETHING LIKE THIS...»<p align="left">We propose this project should be undertaken as an incubator within the Eclipse Technology Project. It is intended to complement |
| Project X and Project Y, which are both found in the Eclipse Tools Project, and where it is anticipated |
| this project will ultimately reside.</p> |
| |
| <p align="left">«ALTERNATIVELY, IF THE PROJECT'S EVENTUAL GOAL IS TO BE |
| ABSORBED INTO THE PLATFORM, YOU MIGHT USE SOMETHING LIKE THIS...»</p> |
| |
| <p align="left">We propose this project should be undertaken as a Technology project rather than as part of the Eclipse Platform. Being a Technology project gives it room to experiment without disruption to other Eclipse Platform development work.<br> |
| <br> |
| The life cycle of this project may be similar to the Equinox project. That is, once this work matures, it may be incorporated into the Eclipse Platform to provide a common open source substrate that industrial/commercial users could use to build solutions. Alternatively, it may continue as a |
| Technology subproject. </p> |
| |
| <p align="left">«ALTERNATIVELY, IF THE PROJECT IS MORE OF A RESEARCH |
| PROJECT AND THE EVENTUAL GOAL IS NOT YET DETERMINED, YOU MIGHT USE |
| SOMETHING LIKE THIS...»</p> |
| |
| <p align="left">Finally, since Technology sub-projects are not meant to be ongoing, we foresee three possible evolutionary paths for the subproject:<br> |
| <br> |
| 1. The project is merged back into the mainline Eclipse Platform top-level project.<br> |
| 2. The project is moved to a permanent state as a Tools Platform project.<br> |
| 3. The technology proves to be insufficient for Eclipse and the work is set aside.<br> |
| <br> |
| These paths are not mutually exclusive. Some combination of some or all of these paths may be the result of the work done in this project. </p> |
