The #EclipseFdn is, to our knowledge, currently the only EU-domiciled organisation participating in Anthropic's Project Glasswing, an initiative giving selected critical software operators and maintainers early access to frontier AI for defensive security work. Through our partnership with the Alpha-Omega Project, we have been involved in Glasswing since its inception, giving us a unique vantage point on how frontier AI capabilities are reshaping software security and resilience. Frontier AI is changing the economics of software security. The same capabilities that can help defenders identify vulnerabilities, generate patches, and accelerate remediation can also lower the cost of exploitation. For Europe, this makes open source security and rapid patch deployment a matter of digital resilience. In his blog, Mike Milinkovich explains why Europe needs trusted, shared defence capacity at machine speed and why the #EclipseFdn’s participation in Project Glasswing is strategically important.

💻 Want to host a meetup or webinar? We help you bring it to life! In this Eclipse Management Organization (EMO) session, Ludmila Muina, event coordinator at the Eclipse Foundation, provides an overview of #EclipseFdn webinar resources and discusses how projects can leverage meetups and webinars to promote their work, build momentum, and grow their communities.

Ally Gentry explores in this article for Efficiently Connected, Inc., how the #EclipseFdn, Gaia-X Association for Data and Cloud (AISBL), Liberium, Mercedes-Benz Tech Innovation, and others are positioning open source and #dataspaces as part of Europe’s long-term digital infrastructure strategy. One of the strongest points raised throughout the discussions at Open Community Experience was that dependency is not accidental. Every procurement decision shapes future leverage, flexibility, and control. As software costs rise and platform concentration deepens, organisations are beginning to reassess what sovereignty actually means in practice. The article also highlights the growing role of dataspaces as mechanisms for trusted collaboration across industries. Automotive, aerospace, energy, and public infrastructure projects are already exploring how interoperable governance models can enable data sharing without surrendering ownership or control. 📖 Read the full article: https://hubs.la/Q04fXLCy0 #DigitalSovereignty #opensource #GaiaX #OCX26

How are organisations really using open source in 2026? The 2026 State of Open Source Report highlights trends, challenges, and opportunities for teams building with OSS. It contains some striking statistics around time spent maintaining vs. developing, vulnerability management, and shifting attitudes toward governance and digital sovereignty. Produced by Perforce Software in collaboration with the Eclipse Foundation and Open Source Initiative (OSI), this year’s report is a must-read for developers, architects, and technology leaders working in open ecosystems.

Frontier AI systems can now assist with vulnerability discovery, exploitability analysis, and patch generation. Anthropic's Project Glasswing put this shift in the public eye by giving selected critical software operators and maintainers early access to Claude Mythos Preview for defensive security work. Through our partnership with the Alpha-Omega Project, the #EclipseFdn has been part of the Glasswing Project since its inception, giving us direct experience with this emerging model of AI-assisted vulnerability discovery. To our knowledge, we're currently the only EU-domiciled organisation participating in the initiative, giving us a unique vantage point on how frontier AI capabilities are reshaping software security and resilience. Read this blog by our executive director, Mike Milinkovich, to learn why this matters, explore the key findings, and discover what Europe should do next 👉 https://hubs.la/Q04gW_Wg0 #opensource #AI #GlasswingProject

We have learned valuable lessons this past month working with the Mythos model and Project Glasswing.

The #EclipseFdn has launched the Open VSX Security Researcher Recognition Program, creating a clear pathway for responsible vulnerability disclosure in a growing extension ecosystem. Security researchers and developers can contribute by identifying real-world risks, supporting remediation, and helping strengthen the software supply chain, while being recognised for their impact. Open VSX now exceeds 300 million monthly downloads, reinforcing its role as critical infrastructure.
