Market Research Study.   Mike Taylor reminded everyone of the market research study that the Eclipse Foundation was attempting to coordinate.  Mike indicated that the study had been done for the last couple of years and has historically provided tremendous value relative to the investment required by the participating companies.  Mike further indicated that this year the Foundation was having difficulty soliciting sufficient participation to pursue the study.  All Board members were encouraged to consider participating in the study.  Mike Milinkovich added that the study was quite economical and beneficial to both the Foundation and the ecosystem as a whole.
