[Incubator] MOTION: GeoNode Graduation from OSGeo Incubation

[Jody Garnett]

You are correct David, twice:
- incubation finding issues is the point, we do not ask that the issues are
fixed during incubation only that they are listed as known problems (so
potential users are aware and can decide to help out or steer clear as
appropriate).
- none of the issues I found were that interesting, indeed my check went a
bit further then I was able to email (for example confirming with Jeff that
the sample data was obtained under asuitable license)

That said I would applicate an extra set of eyes on the checklist, I am
interested in any work that needed to be done during incubation (such as
you updating the headers - although I guess that was due to the code
changing ownership).

It is my hope to continue working through the checklist and respond with a
firm +1, currently I am at an enthusiastic +0 :)
