[Incubator] OSSIM Incubation Status

[Cameron Shorter]

Mark,
OSSIM seems to be getting close.

Looking over: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSSIM_incubation_status

I have the following comments:

---
I'm looking for more evidence of "Community Functioning"

Eg:

"Is there a functioning user support mechanisms (ie. mailing list)?

    existing and functioning well. mailing list and irc #ossimPlanet
    chat room" 


I can't tell from this statement whether the community is communicating 
well. I'm looking for something more like:
"Email list archives at: http://..., IRC at: ...  Our email lists 
receives ~ XX emails a week, with ~  XX core contributors. We have XX 
scheduled meetings per week/month, and generally have XX unscheduled 
conversions on IRC per day/week.
Mention about in person meetings should be included here.

Please link to your Code Provenance Review from this wiki.

There are a number of other places where you should link to evidence 
from this page, so that others can verify your claims.
