Governance and Contributions

Eclipse MicroProfile is governed by community members. In other words, it is not governed by a single vendor. In addition, it receives contributions from developers and subject-matter experts across a spectrum of organizations, corporations, and individual contributors. The project is characterized by its innovation, speed, and agility via light processes and governance.
