This repository is a sandbox for incubating ideas and code examples that will eventually turn into a separate repository towards a new specification.

Feel free to experiment with anything and share your code and documents in this repo via pull requests. Open pull requests also allow discussion about particular sections of code or documents so they should be left open for a while to allow the discussion.

'''

If you need to accept and merge a pull request, or you feel that an idea is mature and deserves a separate repository, contact one of the https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.microprofile/who[MicroProfile project committers] for guidance. They can be contacted either directly or on the https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/microprofile[MicroProfile mailing list].

==== Contributor License Agreement requirements

Your pull request will be checked to make sure there is a valid Eclipse Foundation Contributor Agreement (ECA) on file, (for an eclipse.org id associated with the commit author).

.To pass this check, perform these steps: . Get an eclipse.org id at: https://accounts.eclipse.org/.

• If you specify an organization (e.g. an employer) that has signed a contributor agreement when creating your id, skip to step 3. . If you're not already covered via your employer, https://www.eclipse.org/legal/ecafaq.php[read] about the ECA and sign. . Be sure to "sign-off" your commits, git commit -s -m "<commit message>".

To verify that your commits are linked to a signed ECA (without submitting a PR), you can also use add the https://blogs.eclipse.org/post/christopher-guindon/eclipse-foundation-contributor-validation-service[ECA Validator GitHub app], to any repository, and test your PRs there.
