[Incubator] MOTION: GeoNode Graduation from OSGeo Incubation

[David William Bitner]

Just to bump this a bit as many were traveling when the motion went out.

The GeoNode team is actively addressing the concerns that Jody brought up,
all of which are valuable items, but I do not believe any are showstoppers.
If there are any additional concerns, please bring them up here.
