Normally Eclipse won't accept contributions from any entity which has not signed the document be they corporate or individual, a perfectly understandable stance given they usually wrangle competing corporate entities. But since my post Dan assures us that won't be the case for the Asciidoc specification, and evidence of that will be provided in writing (well a web page) "soon". To be clear I am not against the Eclipse foundation per se, but I am not a Javaist and all I know about Eclipse foundation is the IDE and whats written on their website so anything not documented there doesn't exist. And I do agree with Dan that having an independent organisation with some clout to hold things like trademarks, copyrights and the asciidoc.org domain is a good thing.
