TL;DR: No.
Longer answer:
There is no prohibition against posting documentation anywhere
(subject to the terms of the SUA and license, of course).
However, the Freedom of Action provision in the Eclipse Development
Process requires that project intellectual property be hosted using
a service supported by the Eclipse Foundation. The basic logic is
that we need to have some guarantee that the IP will persist past
any change in the business model of a service.
Theoretically, if we have a means of backing up the content onto
EF-managed services and potential to rehost it, then we could use
the service, but setting that up requires some effort from the
Webmaster. If you want to explore this option, open a bug.
Is the content on GitHub IO stored in an EF-managed repository?

Hi David,
I am currently having the same question for the
openHAB documentation. Some people did a German tutorial using readthedocs.org,
but I never liked the dependency on a 3rd party and I am pretty
reluctant doing that for an Eclipse project.
For Eclipse SmartHome, we are using Markdown for the
documentation and have scripts to prepare and aggregate all
sources for the docs - A Jekyll job then generates the HTML page
(still to be set up as an automatic build job); this gives more
flexibility than using Github pages directly, and afaik, Jekyll
is pretty powerful and I am currently only scratching its
surface.
Regards,
Kai
Hello,
The Eclipse Kura team is looking at better
ways to handle documentation. We are currently using
Github IO, but would like to move to something that
provides more management features for committers and a
better experience for users. We are considering Read
the Docs [1], but would like to ask the following
questions:
1. Is the Eclipse Foundation okay with us
hosting documentation on this site?
2. Do other projects have documentation
solutions that they have found useful?
Thanks,
David Woodard
Eclipse Kura Project Lead
