OK, maybe it was easier for us because and really only a short history of several months. I hope didn't bring more confusion. I just wanted to point out that Eclipse, ad Wayne especially, has been always open to discussion over “have tos” and were very helpful. At worst, you’ll get through explanation for “have to” if you ask, as Wayne just proved with his reply. Thanks Wayne, you and others from Eclipse are really helpful and it's been a pleasure to work with you. Ondro > From my experience there's no "have to" in Eclipse, only guidelines and best practices. That may be true in some areas, but I fought hard to avoid squashing history when my project joined Eclipse and lost. I don't think you can avoid it.

If you have special needs or concerns, you should discuss with your Eclipse mentor and seek the best for both your project and the Eclipse foundation. They are very flexible, don't be afraid to express your concerns if you think the default isn't convenient for you. 2017-10-03 8:54 GMT-07:00 Stephane Epardaud <stef@xxxxxxxxxxx>: What?

So I wouldn't be afraid of losing history. 2017-10-03 5:04 GMT-07:00 Oliver Kopp <kopp.dev@xxxxxxxxx>: Hi Stephane,

Yes. You might want to add the tag "initial-code-contribution" as tag. I used "Initial Code Contribution - CQ 7916" at the first commit to ensure proper referencing to IPZilla.
I also agree that an BugZilla issue is the best way to move forward.
