[Incubator] gvSIG project graduation

[Jody Garnett]

Quick question, looking for a link to the code providence review.

3. The project code, documentation and data has been adequately vetted to
> assure it is all properly licensed, and a copyright notice included, as per

> 4. The project maintains a list of all copyright holders identified in the

> gvSIG Association. All the developers have signed the CLA

Checking the osgeo wiki links me ...
- http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Provenance_Review

Which links me to ...
-
http://docs.gvsig.org/web/projects/gvsig-desktop/docs/devel/gvsig-devel-guide/2-1-0/provenance-review

Is this the correct link I should be reviewing? Looks like it was modified
on "13/06/2015"...
