I agree Community Projects is a confusing name.<br>
<br>
What about incubator projects? That’s the term that Apache uses.<br>

Thanks Jeff.<br>

Though we had lots of discussions afterwards and continuing on this , we couldnt find any solution till now. So this might be a good opportunity to modify the Incubation's "labs" term, to something like "Community Projects" to avoid confusion if that is acceptable to Vaclav, Jachym and others. Many thanks.<br>
<br>
Well, I'm not particularly fond of "Community Projects" as a name. Even mature FOSS projects are community projects in one way or the other. Unfortunately, I don't have other suggestion.<br>

(we are approaching 2 full years that this "labs" naming has been an<br>
issue and discussed[1])<br>
<br>
Today, knowing how ingrained the term 'lab' is in the GeoForAll<br>
education network, maybe Jachym is correct that it is a good time to<br>
modify the Incubation's "labs" term, to something like "Community<br>
Projects".<br>

For example Botany Lab, Robotics Lab etc. And we wanted to make sure there is a dedicated Open Source Geospatial Lab in universities worldwide (which includes bringing together people from various disciplines, infrastructure (the physical space) and facilities to make this happen. Also it is easier to make use of the same terminology/structure of "Labs" which is widely used in the university environment to get academics start the initiative in their respective universities (also it is easier for them to convince their higher management on a structure that is known to them than reinvent a new term for this) .<br>

> Hi Jachym,<br>

Now we have also ISPRS-ICA-OSGeo Research and Educational laboratories which might be often shortened to OSGeo Labs, although I prefer OSGeoRELs for writing. The mainling list is ica-osgeo-labs. Put perhaps it is not such an issue since the term "Geo for All" (<a href="http://www.geoforall.org/" target="_blank">http://www.geoforall.org/</a>) is now used more and more (well, the linked website as OSGeo Labs in the title element).<br>
