[Incubator] Incubator Application: deegree

[Cameron Shorter]

Sorry for the slow response, usual excuses.

Markus,
It is great to hear that a well established project like deegree is 
engaging OSGeo. I think deegree has a lot to offer the community and in 
particular I think it will benefit all if we see further collaboration 
between deegree and other OSGeo projects - something which I think has 
been one of the under-reported benefits of OSGeo.

One of my standard questions for new projects is to discuss similar 
(OSGeo) projects and what opportunities there are for collaboration, or 
if not what are the barriers.

The more collaboration, the more attractive the project is as a 
graduation candidate.

As I seem to bring up this question fairly regularly, maybe it should be 
included in the OSGeo Application page.
