  The question remaining is: Which level of offline mode will we support? It
  seems reasonable to assume that users will be able to tell when localhost is
  not active (in most cases, localhost should be available, even if the rest of

 - [ ] Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to understand what the pull request does, how, and why.
 - [ ] Run `mvn clean verify` to make sure basic checks pass. A more thorough check will
       be performed on your pull request automatically.
 - [ ] You have run the [Core IT][core-its] successfully.

If your pull request is about ~20 lines of code you don't need to sign an

Agreement. The Eclipse Foundation is the initial Agreement Steward. The Eclipse
Foundation may assign the responsibility to serve as the Agreement Steward
to a suitable separate entity. Each new version of the Agreement will be given
a distinguishing version number. The Program (including Contributions) may
always be distributed subject to the version of the Agreement under which

that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
authors' reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program

Making and Submitting Changes
--------------

We accept Pull Requests via GitHub. The [developer mailing list][dev-ml-list] is the
main channel of communication for contributors.  
There are some guidelines which will make applying PRs easier for us:
+ Create a topic branch from where you want to base your work (this is usually the master branch).
  Push your changes to a topic branch in your fork of the repository.
+ Make commits of logical units.
