> The ETF Project, an Eclipse Technology Subproject
>  
> The goal of the Eclipse Trust Framework (ETF) Project is to provide an 
> open source framework to support the creation of applications on the 
> Eclipse platform that manage a user’s online context (profile) and 
> identity from an agent or especially from an end user’s perspective.
>  
> The ETF project will focus on improving the facilities within Eclipse 
> for building secure, reliable context-specific interchanges between a 
> user’s client and other systems. Applications developers will be able 
> to use ETF APIs and plug-ins to build applications that are compatible 
> with standard security/trust infrastructures.
