[Incubator] New Mentor for MapGuide

[Mark Lucas]

I'd agree if they are completely separate, but if they are  
collaborating and use some of the same people there may be advantages  
to rolling it under an existing project.  This is essentially what we  
are doing with osgPlanet under OSSIM.  Probably 90% of our new  
development is going into osgPlanet driving some enhancements to the  
OSSIM baseline in the process.  Personally, I'd like to see more  
integration between various activities.  It will make it less of a  
tower of Babel when users/members come looking for solutions.
