Built in the open.
No private forks. No insider builds. No walled-off releases.
Where the work happens
OIE is developed on GitHub. Every code change is a public commit. Every bug, feature request, and design discussion is a public issue or discussion thread. Every release ships from a repository you can audit.
Governance
The engine is led by a public Steering Committee and a group of Maintainers, with Contributors at every level. Selection, responsibilities, and decision-making are documented in the governance repository.
Headed for the Eclipse Foundation
OIE has begun the process of joining the Eclipse Foundation, the same stewardship structure that backs Jakarta EE, Theia, and Jetty. It is a multi-year path, but the direction is set: long-term institutional openness, not just a friendly license.
How to contribute
