Approved Revisions to the Intellectual
Property (IP) Policy
As communicated to our members earlier this year as well as illustrated in the teleconference presentation "IP Due Diligence: Modernizing our Processes" (slides / recording / issue), revisions to the Eclipse Foundation’s Intellectual Property Policy were approved by the board of directors on June 29, 2022.
These revisions will bring the Eclipse Foundation's due diligence processes related to IP in line with current industry best practices while improving our ability to scale, thus reducing the IP due diligence burden on our projects, committers, and staff.
The new version of the IP Policy (version 8.0) becomes effective on July 29, 2022.
Should you have any questions regarding the changes, please contact license@eclipse.org.

2022 Annual Community Report
This past year has been one of exceptional growth for the Eclipse Foundation. We have been joined by many newprojects, working groups, members, and committers.
As you will see in the 2022 Annual Community Report, the Eclipse Foundation community has achieved great things over the past year. The community report identifies many of these accomplishments.
We hope the Annual Community Report is useful to you in summarizing the Foundation’s activities and progress.
Coming Soon: Interest Groups
The Eclipse Foundation’s board of directors approved the introduction of an Interest Group Process at its June 2022 Board meetings.
The Interest Group Process is the next step in furthering the Eclipse Foundation’s governance framework to enable “innovation through collaboration” by empowering members to work together using a lighter-weight organizational structure.
More detail on interest groups will be published in the coming months, and the new process will be implemented beginning in Q4 2022.
