Development Resources/Incubation FAQ
This FAQ is specifically intended for open source projects in the incubation phase; it is populated based on discussions that occur on the The Incubation Mailing list.
Please also see the Webmaster FAQ.
Can I have an @eclipse.org mail account?
We don't offer @eclipse.org mail accounts specifically. Projects who use our build infra get a "system" account (we call them Project Genies) that are used to build, sign, and access external services (such as OSSRH) on behalf of the project.
If you don't want to use a personal email to register with OSSRH, we can create a Project Genie account for this purpose. File a Bug against Eclipse Foundation/Community/Hudson requesting this, and make sure your project lead +1's the request.
