All,
We
are pleased to announce our request for proposals for the first
list of enhancements and improvements to the IDE/Platform to be
funded under FEEP, our new development program funded
exclusively through donations made by individuals to the Friends of Eclipse
program.
As described in more detail in the FEEP
program description, you are invited to bid on any or all
of the Approved
Development Efforts. Please note that to view this list
you must first be logged in using your eclipse.org account; if
you don't have an account you can generate one here.
Proposals can be submitted directly from the list of
Approved
Development Efforts. Further details and
discussion regarding the proposal process will be done using the
ide-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx
mailing list. Please feel free to track these details there.
The deadline for submitting proposals for this first cycle is
Tuesday,
November 10th. We expect to award contracts to the winning
bidders the week of November 16th, with development expected to
begin shortly thereafter. Please note that Eclipse Foundation has
committed to posting a list of the winning bidders, along with the
contract value, at the end of the bid process.
We hope you will consider participating in the program, and
together we can continue to make improvements to the Eclipse
IDE/Platform.
Regards,
Paul White
