[eclipse.org-committers] Due Diligence Process - Updated Process Flow Do

["Janet Campbell" <janet.campbell@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just in time for EclipseCon, we have a revised pictorial diagram of the IP Process (attached).   A copy of this document can also be found on the following IPBug.  Our website will be updated with the document shortly.  The revised document reflects our efforts to streamline the IP Process for the community.  You will for example see the parallel process for Incubating Projects addressed and the introduction of parallelism into the Board voting process.

 

For those of you attending EclipseCon, we will be available at the poster reception to discuss this diagram and answer any questions you may have.  I will also be presenting this document at the Committer and Project Boot Camp (Sunday March 4^th, 13:00, 4 hours | Tasman).

 

For those of you who may be interested, the following short talks on IP will also be presented at EclipseCon:

 

1. Third Party Code - Licenses that work and those that don't/Does dual-licensing help?

Tuesday, 14:00, 10 minutes | Ballroom FGHABC
