Regarding the naming -<br>
1) leave it as OSGeo Labs<br>
2) Supporting OSGeo<br>
3) the suggested names look like slang of English speaking person<br>
<br>
We like the idea of "Supporting OSGeo" where a project can claim this,<br>
maybe with some minimal requirements, like code is on github and is<br>
valid open source license. In general our feeling about incubation is<br>
that the effort required to accomplish this does not match the benefits<br>
attained by do it. We see it as hard to find a motivated mentor, lost of<br>
paper work and projects get lost in incubation process for years due to<br>
slow process on both sides.<br>
