Description Glenn Everitt CLA 2006-10-30 12:56:29 EST
Need to sign jars for Corona 1.0 GA

1. Jar signing
The Eclipse Foundation, with help from the Eclipse project team, has set up an infrastructure that will enable you to sign your JAR files, as well as JAR files within a ZIP file. The files are signed by the Foundation, using a Foundation-owned code signing certificate. We will be extending signing privileges to one or two committers on each project.

How does it work?

1. You Project Lead must tell us (webmaster) who is allowed to sign JARs for your project.

2. When you've been granted signing privileges, you use an SSH client and connect to build.eclipse.org using your committer account as usual.

3. You must copy/move the files you wish to sign to the downloads staging area. We do not allow you to sign files from any other location.

4. You type a command that will add files to the signing queue. The queue is processed automatically, and you can get an e-mail notification when signing is complete.

5. You can then move the signed files from the staging area to your downloads area.

Detailed instructions on the signing process will be sent to those committers who are appointed as signers.

Sent email to Eclipse webmaster asking to verify access rights.

Manual jar signing works fine. Signing server and staging area are accessible. Automated jar signing will not be included in the build process for the moment.

Closing all outstanding RESOLVED and VERIFIED items.
