[Incubator] cleaning house

[Jody Garnett]

Really? Infrastructure was always mentioned as optional to me. I am  
more interested in marketing / branding opportunities.

I agree that things need to be kept up to date; is this something we  
could ask for in the annual report projects make to the board?
It is also not clear to me if the marketing committee will collect new  
flyer information from the projects or if the incubation committee is  
expected to play this role.
