[Incubator] Search for incubation mentor

[Paul Spencer]

Pieter - I would be willing to be your mentor.  I am and have been involved in some web application framework projects so I am interested to see yours in action.

I will review your incubation application in the next couple of days.  To save me a bit of work, can you point me to the relevant links for

* project home
* any relevant docs that would get me up to speed
* project mailing lists (user, development, any others)

Looking forward to working with you ...

Cheers

Paul

This is why I am writing this mail, as Frank Warmerdam suggested on IRC, in the hope to get one of you excited enough to be the official incubation mentor :-)

The back-end is based upon technologies such as GeoTools and Hibernate Spatial (which was written for the Geomajas project, but is now a separate project), creating an end-to-end Java stack to write your applications in.

We have included automatic docbook generation in the daily build, and have over 60 pages of documentation for our future release already. We have just installed the first official Project Steering Committee (where we are still looking for someone from outside the community to sit on it for objectivity), and we are organising a code sprint next week, where people from 4 different companies are attending.
