[Incubator] Motion: Decline Incubation for GeoFunctions

[Rushforth, Peter]

Hi Jeroen,

When I've mentioned geofunctions to people they've often mentioned
geonetwork.  Have you reviewed my description of geofunctions and
do you see any relationship there?  Could geofunctions be useful
as a module in geonetwork?

I am very big on XSLT (2), I see it as super productive scripting
environment, albeit with memory footprint issues etc that may one
day seem irrelevant.

Cheers,
Peter
