Description John Arthorne CLA 2011-04-28 11:58:14 EDT
A number of projects "crowd source" their documentation use the Eclipse wiki and Mylyn's WikiText. Essentially this allows you to export doc from the wiki and convert it to Eclipse doc format. It then gets consumed in a build and released along with the code in the release distribution. From an IP perspective all contributions to Eclipsepedia are subject to the Eclipse SUA, so I think in general we are covered. However, I don't know of any way to record such wiki-originated contributions in the IP log. Perhaps the IP tooling could help with scraping contributor names from the wiki?

Wikimedia must provide a mechanism for this. I'll look into it.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
