[Board] Re: OSGeo success list wanted

[Tyler Mitchell]

I see you've got a good start on the wiki.  I don't know how feasible  
it is, but it would be really valuable to have a summary from each  
project on their 'journey' into OSGeo over the past year and how  
their projects have advanced.  Since we don't get regular reports  
from them, perhaps at least asking for a 2006 summary wouldn't be too  
much burden. (?)
