As the (inactive) mentor for MetaCRS, I agree with moving it to Labs. Its sub-projects, especially PROJ4, are very actively used by several OSGeo projects, but due to the nature of the projects and their small teams they are unlikely to make progress through incubation anytime soon.<br>

Support for MetaCRS seems lukewarm. I'd like to step up as caretaker and<br>
get more involved. Can we move this from Incubaton to whatever we are<br>
going to call the new Incubation Labs? I can be listed as the project<br>
contact.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

Hi Landon,<br>
Sounds like a good plan.<br>
Thanks.<br>

Let me reach out to the MetaCRS mailing list. If we can't find<br>
interest there, I might be interested as stepping up as a<br>
caretaker for the code as an "OSGeo Technology Project".<br>

Hi Jody,<br>
Great to hear there is some activity happening with the CRS<br>
libraries.<br>
But the question is not as to whether the projects are active,<br>
but rather whether there are people within the projects<br>
wishing to push these projects through the OSGeo Incubation<br>
process.<br>
<br>
Rob, Martin, any thoughts from you?<br>
<br>
I'd suggest we give people a week or 2 to respond, probably<br>
try and reach out directly as well, and if there are no<br>
takers, then we should gracefully have these projects step<br>
back from the OSGeo Incubation process, in order to better<br>
reflect the current OSGeo status of these projects.<br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron<br>
<br>

Apaprently there is activity happening around the edges, I<br>
was talking with Rob and Martin about one of the metac crs<br>
projects.<br>
<br>
MetaCRS is kind of a "top-level" project facilitating<br>
communication between a number of different groups. As such<br>
it may be able to recast itself as a "committee" (that has a<br>
shared github some of their initiatives).<br>
<br>
I think MetaCRS would be a great candidate for an "OSGeo<br>
Technology" stream - the stated goal of MetaCRS is to:<br>
<br></div></div>
/"treat a variety of coordinate system activities as one<span class=""><br>
Project from an OSGeo point of view. This helps provide<br>
enough "project mass" to justify the full OSGeo project<br></span>
treatment./<span class=""><br>
<br>
<br>
If we set up "OSGeo Technology" right these individual<br>
projects will meet their goal of being recognized as the<br>
fundamental components that they are (and be supported).<br>

Hi MetaCRS and OSGeo Incubation people,<br>
Has there been any activity on the MetaCRS project [1]<br>
over the last few years? The last active ticket I see is<br>
from 2013.<br>
<br>
It is listed as one of the projects in OSGeo-Incubation,<br>
and I think has been in incubation from close to the<br>
start of OSGeo founding?<br>
<br>
Is anyone working on it? And in particular, does anyone<br>
doing any work on taking Meta-CRS through incubation?<br>
<br>
I'm wondering whether it should be retired from the<br>
incubation process, or maybe the scope of projects it is<br>
trying to incubate be reduced?<br>
<br>
I ask in part because we include a description of MetaCRS<br>
in OSGeo-Live, but have no point of contact to maintain<br>
documentation since Mike Adair has stepped back from<br>
OSGeo activities.<br>
