ThreadX Interest Group

The intent of the ThreadX Interest Group is to investigate the formation of a ThreadX Working Group supporting the Eclipse ThreadX projects. Topics for discussion and investigation include:

• Support and maintenance of the Eclipse ThreadX safety certifications. This is an annual cost and a collection of members in a WG would be a good way to amortize the cost of maintaining the certifications across companies with a direct interest and benefit in doing so.
• Establishment of a branding program for Eclipse ThreadX projects to support growth in the upstream ecosystem and a marketplace for member downstream products.
• Development of an Eclipse ThreadX Marketplace. Eclipse has a track record over the years of supporting marketplace development (e.g. the original Eclipse IDE market). The interest group could investigate if such a marketplace development function would help working group members expand business as a place, for example, to host pluggable drivers, ThreadX add-ons, and integrations, etc.
• Development of an Eclipse ThreadX Ecosystem. Beyond the immediacy of a marketplace, the Eclipse Foundation has a long history of supporting and growing developer ecosystems around Eclipse projects through events, technical discussions, training, and specifications development.
• Establishment of possible Eclipse ThreadX compatibility programs to support marketplace growth.
• Support the sustainable funding of the ThreadX initiative, its projects, brands, and safety certifications.
