[Incubator] AGM report - status update requested from each project

[Manuel Grizonnet]

Hi Jody and all,

sorry for the late reply. I miss this email before FOSS4G and did not 
find time to make a report to the list before the conference regarding 
the incubation status of the ORFEO ToolBox 
<https://www.orfeo-toolbox.org/> (OTB).

I made a presentation during FOSS4G about the creation of the OTB 
Steering Committee done in the frame of the OSGeo incubation in 2015. 
The presentation gives also some general information about our 
incubation status  :

Slides are available here:

OTB incubation is quite calm for some months indeed but but it's because 
we're currently in the process to consider moving from CECILL (gpl like) 
to an Apache license.

It is a long process initiate in the beginning of 2015:

We're focusing now to validate and complete this migration (check 
compatibility with third party, contact contributors...). Not an easy 
task but we're not far from it now.  That's why I've "paused" a little 
bit the incubation procedure as the license migration will cover also 
remaining steps of the OTB incubation check list (I think that we're 
only missing the creation of CLA mechanism for OTB contributors):

I'll come back soon to the list when I'll have some updates.

Regards,

Manuel
