If you remove Jenkins and attach Paul Kehrer, jqxin2006 (Michael Xin),
Arash Ghoreyshi, Chad Lung and Steven Gonzales to Rackspace, then the
picture is:

67% of commits come from a single person (John Wood)
96% of commits come from a single company (Rackspace)

I think that's a bit brittle: if John Wood or Rackspace were to decide
to place their bets elsewhere, the project would probably die instantly.
I would feel more comfortable if a single individual didn't author more
than 50% of the changes, and a single company didn't sponsor more than
80% of the changes.

Personally I think that's a large enough group to make up a Program and
gain visibility, but a bit too fragile to enter incubation just now.
