Interesting.

Our prior experience is that there is a non-trivial amount of work
involved in taking a project through the incubation process, which
has resulted in many projects taking much longer to incubate than
expected.<br>
<br>
Luis, has someone been resourced to spend the time required to go
through all the incubation criteria?<br>
This includes such things as setting up processes in wikis, doing
code audits and writing reports about the audits, potentially
adding licencing messages to code, writing installers for
OSGeo-Live, along with Project Overviews and Quickstarts, and many
other small things.<br>
<br>
Before voting, I'm looking to hear a commitment that there will be
someone allocated to take on these incubation tasks.<br>
