Hi Jody, All

Security is definitely part of it, but static analysis finds other problems as well.. if you're familiar with FindBugs, same idea.

For what it's worth, I'm not sure I agree with the idea that security is moot for desktop software. Proposed remedy: debate over beer. ;-)

Interested to know more about what is being checked? Website indicates security risks - a moot point for desktop software. I tend to use the highly recommended FindBugs on the QA side of the street.

I think the next area we can use assistance on is transitioning the codebase (as it is) and setting up a build box :-)

Hi uDig Community,

Happy New Year! I hope everyone is well.

A new member called Checkmarx just joined the Eclipse Foundation in
December and is interested in offering free static analysis scans to
Eclipse & LocationTech projects. Already they're working with Jetty and
making contact with some others. I was wondering if uDig might be
interested? If so, I'm glad to introduce one of the team to my contact
who's driving this at Checkmarx.

Cheers,

Andrew
