<p>The Eclipse Technology Project is a top-level project at The
Eclipse Foundation. As a top-level project, the Technology Project does
not itself contain code, but rather plays host to a large assortment of
projects covering a wide diversity of subject areas.</p>
<p>Projects under the Eclipse Technology Project tend to have
limited lifecycles. Unlike the other top-level Projects, the Technology
Projects are meant to be technology explorations or incubators. When
these projects have explored, proved, or disproved their associated
technologies, the project comes to its <a
href="http://www.eclipse.org/technology/archived.php">natural end</a>.
For some projects, this end is a paper publishing the research results;
for others, this end is to be incorporated into the base technology of
another top-level project.</p>
