Rather then adding new projects to incubation, I believe we should
(drastically) speed up incubation for projects already in incubation.

I failed to find a post in the archive of this mailing list for the
last *year* for eg the incubation of Opticks or zoo-project.

Come on, the requirements for incubation are not hard, if we fail to
help projects incubate within one year I believe either we are not
doing the right thing or they are not genuinely interested in
incubation. Stretching things too long only makes it more painful if
projects are rejected in the end.
