The core of the problem is that our tests include test repositories (necessary to test various aspects of m2e) and that those contain a large number of jars (around 200) which would all have to be IP cleared before we can check them in Git. Given the cost involved for both the foundation and the m2e committers, and given that these jars do not end up being part of the final product, we are working with the Foundation to see how to tweak the legal requirements to accommodate this use case.

errr... only Eclipse committers can access IPZilla, and I'm not one of them ;-) Care to give us a debrief on the IP issues?

Hello,
Just wanted to inform you that the m2e code is now finally hosted on the eclipse foundation repositories [1].
At this point, due to some legal difficulties [2] the tests have not been moved to the foundation. Until this get sorted out, the tests will be residing on the github repo where they have always been [3].
In the next few days, we will be completing the migration (bugs, setting up ci builds, etc.) as well as making our first contribution to the Indigo release train.
