🙌 Eclipse Apoapsis has graduated to mature status!
Managing open source dependencies across multiple applications and repositories requires scalable approaches to software composition analysis and compliance.
Eclipse Apoapsis addresses these needs through reusable process blueprints and ORT Server, a reference implementation based on the OSS Review Toolkit.

ORT Server provides a REST API, access management, a web frontend, centralised software inventory management, and Kubernetes integration.
These capabilities support teams working on vulnerability monitoring, compliance analysis, and SBOM generation.
Having completed its Graduation Review in September 2026, Eclipse Apoapsis has reached an important milestone in its development as an open source project.

Congratulations to the project team and contributors!

Open source can change more than your career.
For Miguel Useche, it helped him find work, build friendships around the world, and start a new life in Colombia 🇨🇴  after leaving Venezuela 🇻🇪. 
His story is a reminder that the people behind the code matter just as much as the technology.

🔐 Eclipse Common Security Infrastructure (CSI) has graduated to mature status!
CSI plays an important role in supporting the security and release engineering work of Eclipse Foundation projects.
The project brings together open source technologies and practices that help secure software supply chains and establish consistent security approaches across the community.
Among its tools is Otterdog, which provides declarative configuration management for GitHub repositories.

CSI also currently declares compliance with SLSA Build Level 3, reflecting its focus on build and software supply chain security.
Graduation recognises the project's operational maturity and its role in providing dependable, long-term infrastructure for the Eclipse Foundation community.

Congratulations to the CSI team and contributors!

📚 Helping the open source ecosystem prepare for the Cyber Resilience Act requires more than one tool or one piece of guidance.
The OCCTET toolkit provides practical services for readiness assessment, software dependency analysis, vulnerability management, SBOMs, VEX, and compliance documentation.
It complements work taking place through the Open Regulatory Compliance Working Group, where the community is developing specifications, guidance, training, and other resources to support #CRA implementation.
These efforts are focused on making compliance knowledge and tooling more accessible to the organisations and open source communities that need them.

⚙️ Eclipse Tycho has graduated to mature status!
Eclipse Tycho has been supporting the development and release of Eclipse-based software for over a decade. The project provides a Maven-centric, manifest-first approach to building Eclipse Platform plug-ins, OSGi bundles, features, p2 repositories, and Eclipse RCP applications.
By working with native Eclipse and OSGi metadata, Tycho supports dependency resolution, compilation, testing, packaging, and publishing through Maven-based workflows.

Graduation formally recognises the maturity of a project that continues to play an important role in the Eclipse IDE and Platform ecosystem.
Congratulations to the Eclipse Tycho contributors and community!

As embedded AI becomes part of increasingly complex and safety-critical systems, shared terminology helps developers, researchers and industry stakeholders work together more effectively.
The newly released English edition of the Structured Glossary of Embedded AI provides that common reference, with more than 300 definitions covering technical, regulatory and governance concepts.
Hosted by the Eclipse Foundation within the Eclipse Aidge project, the glossary is openly accessible and welcomes community contributions.

AI agents can write code, run tests and submit pull requests. But does that give them the authority to make decisions in an open source project?

In a new article for Techstrong Council, @t_mashologu explores what happens when AI agents begin participating in open source communities and why governance needs to become understandable to both humans and machines.
The key distinction: an agent's ability to act does not give it the authority to decide. Community governance must still determine what agents can do, when human approval is required and who remains accountable.

🥁 New project release!
Eclipse INCEpTION offers a browser-based platform for semantic text annotation. Text annotation is the task of adding structured information to documents: marking which spans mention a person, a disease or a gene, recording how those mentions relate to each other, and linking each one to a concept in a knowledge base.
