That is correct Alex, because "incubation" references a mentorship process that the development team is going through ... it has no reflection on the technology (or indeed on the teams progress).
The website has three categories: - listed on the website at all - required to be geospatial, open source and accept contributions - osgeo community - lists projects that are part of team osgeo, but have not completed incubation. required to be geospatial, open source and accept contirbutions. We ask for a more in-depth check of the source code because we are now associated with the project team. - osgeo project - completed the incubation process, so we trust both the code and the teams procedures. Team is recognized as an independent committee with osgeo budget etc... Please review http://osgeo.org/committees/incubation for a better explanation, including listing some of the benefits available. -- Jody Garnett On 22 January 2018 at 12:40, Alex M <[email protected]> wrote: > On 01/22/2018 12:20 PM, Cameron Shorter wrote: > > Hi Jody, > > > > In OSGeo-Live IRC meeting today [1], Brian made a point that he saw an > > email from you suggesting that OSGeoLive has been listed as an OSGeo > > Community project.
