| [eclipse.org-planning-council] New Software User Agreement |
|
See also bug 306627 [1] With apologies, I would like to ask that the Planning Council
consider asking the Helios projects to use the new Software User Agreement just
approved by the IP Advisory Committee of the Board. Unfortunately, that process
took much longer than expected. You can find this new version in plain HTML[2] and as a PHP web page[3]. There are several significant improvements to this SUA that are
important to us that are driving this request. In order of importance they are: a)
This new version includes a section relevant to the use of p2
and other provisioning technology that are becoming so important. b)
It fixes the Java trademark reference from Sun to Oracle. c)
Deletes a dead reference to the IBM Public License. I realize that this is arriving very late in the game. But if it
is at all possible, I would like to ask that this be done for the Helios
release. Thank you for your consideration. [1] https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=306627 [2] http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl/notice.html
