All,

Is there a specific criteria list that should be used as a gauge by the authors to use before a resubmit for incubation?

What specifically needs to happen in order to reverse opinions listed in this Thread.

I think it prudent to put to text, some sort of specific list that the software developers can use as a target for the future.

I agree with Cameron. Based on what I see in the application ticket and in the project's README.md page I don't think that SLDEditor is close enough to the level of maturity required to meet the graduation criteria, so there is not much use in entering incubation at this point. For this reason, I'm -1 on the project entering incubation for now, but sincerely hope that Robert and the project team will reapply once it is more mature and has more chances of passing the graduation criteria.

However it should definitely be listed as Community project while the project works to grow its community of users and contributors and works on the other items from the incubation checklist.

Hi Ian,

I'm +1 for SLD Editor being registered as an OSGeo Community Project
(previously called OSGeo Labs):

However, I'm -0 for SLD Editor being selected as an "OSGeo Project in
Graduation" yet as it implies a level of maturity that I don't think SLD
Editor has reached yet.

This proposal and the related ticket
<https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/1782> have been around for a
month now.

Can I ask the incubation committee for a vote one way or the other please?

We'd like to get started :-)

Cheers

Ian

   I've volunteered to mentor SLDEditor during the incubator process,
   so I would like to move that the project be accepted for incubation.

   SLDEditor (https://github.com/robward-scisys/sldeditor
   <https://github.com/robward-scisys/sldeditor>) is Java desktop
   application that allows the creation and editing of OGC Styled
   Layer Descriptors. It is based on the GeoTools library and aims to
   produce SLD that is standards compliant but also allows the user
   to make use of the GeoServer vendor options if required.

   There has been some previous discussion about the project on this
   list
   (https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail//incubator/2016-June/003096.html <https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail//incubator/2016-June/003096.html>).


   Thanks

   Ian
