[Incubator] making a formal community projects document

[Jody Garnett]

Trying to hunt down the selection criteria you reference - so that link
gives me two links:

First Link - Live GIS Add Project
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Add_Project>

Priority for selecting OSGeoLive projects to package is:
> - OSGeo Projects
> - OSGeo Projects in incubation
> - Stable GeoSpatial Open Source Software being presented in workshops,
> tutorials, or presentations at FOSS4G
> - Other Stable GeoSpatial Open Source Software with established project
> communities and a wide user base


The second link Questions to answer when requesting to add an application
to OSGeo-Live <https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc_Apply>


>    - OSGeo-Live is targeted at applications that people can use rather
>    than libraries. Does the application have a user interface (possibly a
>    command line interface) that a user can interact with? (We do make an
>    exception for Incubated OSGeo Libraries, and will include Project Overviews
>    for these libraries, even if they don't have a user interface.)

Is this what you have in mind Cameron?
