The project code, documentation and data has been adequately
vetted to assure it is all properly licensed, and a
copyright notice included, as per a Provenance Review. <b>Yes.
All the information is vetted before publishing (manuals,

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Dear all,<br>
<br>
I am happy today to report to the list that the gvSIG
project has<br>
fulfilled in my view all the criteria put forward by the
OSGeo<br>
Incubation Committee and as the project mentor I support the
project's<br>
request for graduation.<br>
gvSIG is one of the healthiest and very active projects
around, with a<br>
solid developer and user base. It has been around for a long
time and<br>
has done excellent things, the latest being an award at the
NASA World<br>
Wind contest received in FOSS4G-Europe in Como, Italy this
month.<br>
<br>
I had the chance to meet with the gvSIG people at FOSS4G-E
in Como and<br>
we finalized the checklist for the project graduation. You
can find the<br>
checklist here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Incubation_Checklist" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Incubation_Checklist</a><br>
<br>
The people around gvSIG have responded greatly to all the
requests I<br>
made as a mentor, they have gone even beyond that in many
occasions,<br>
e.g. by providing live statistics on their developers'
activity.<br>
They have gone through a code provenance review, they have
user and<br>
developer lists in many languages and they have in place
governance<br>
practices that abide with what I would consider proper
governance of<br>
open source projects.<br>
<br>
I would like to ask the list to take the time and have a
look to the<br>
checklist mentioned above and if anything is found out of
the order<br>
please let me and Manuel Madrid <<a href="mailto:mmadrid@gvsig.com" target="_blank">mmadrid@gvsig.com</a>>
know.<br>
I would also like to ask Jody to initiate the proper time
period for<br>
comments and declare the time for voting when the time
comes.<br>
<br>
Finally I would like to thank Manuel and Alvaro from the
gvSIG<br>
Association for their excellent collaboration and to
publicly apologize<br>
to them that sometimes the work load prohibited me to be as
available<br>
and responsive as I would like.<br>
<br>
Thank you for your attention,<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Dimitris<br>
<br>
P.S.1: Although the project has made a great effort to
provide English<br>
documentation for ... everything, some things might be found
in Spanish<br>
(their language of origin), as well as some of the most
active lists are<br>
the Spanish ones. I respected that and I let the project
take its time<br>
and decide by itself on what to translate and what not.<br>
But I would like to say kudos on their efforts to provide
everything in<br>
at least both Spanish and English.<br>
<br>
P.S.2: Since during the process we had to switch from the
checklist<br>
v.1.0 to v.2.0 of graduation requirements I was wondering
what is the<br>
proper way to introduce comments and requests for changes
for this.<br>
