== What is Orbit? ==
+
Orbit is a project designed to be a repository for third party libraries that are approved for use in Eclipse projects. If the incoming libraries are not already bundles then Orbit committers will work to create a bundle that is suitable for use in Eclipse projects.
+
  
== Does Orbit replace or affect the Eclipse Foundation legal process? ==
+
== Usage ==
NO!  Orbit holds only libraries that have been approved by the standard legal process.  Projects must still follow this process to request permission to use libraries in their releases.

== If a library is approved for use in "all" projects, do I still have to go through the legal process? ==
+
== Development and Maintainance ==
As of this writing, all projects must request permission to use '''any''' third party libraries.  More generally, this is a question for the legal team.  Orbit does not affect the IP policy and legal process.

== Legal ==
The complete list is of bundles available from Orbit is on the Orbit download page.  As the project is just getting underway, we don't have a downloads page so here is a list of the bundles that will be included in Orbit.
