Wow Alex, I think this is one of the most organized applications we have seen!

I will have a look over the long weekend.

Thanks to you and the open data cube team for interest in joining the OSGeo familly.

Hey Folks

As discussed recently in an email thread with Bruce Bannerman<https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/incubator/2021-February/004303.html>, I'd like to present an application for the ODC to be recognised as an OSGeo Community Project.

Here's the list:
1.    Be geospatial
·         Confirm by checking README or project description
§  Not explicit in the project README<https://github.com/opendatacube/datacube-core>. Very clear on the project webpage<https://www.opendatacube.org/>.
·         project page on the osgeo website
§  https://www.osgeo.org/projects/open-data-cube/
·         We ask projects have some user documentation, for example an OSGeo Live quickstart
§  The ODC has extensive documentation<https://datacube-core.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>, which could always be better, but exist and are good.
2.    Have a free license or an open source license.
·         The license must be OSI approved
§  Apache 2.0 licensed<https://github.com/opendatacube/datacube-core/blob/develop/LICENSE>
·         We ask that the project team check the file headers and double check the license has been appropriately applied
§  This has been implemented with text like this<https://github.com/opendatacube/datacube-core/blob/develop/license-template.txt> on all Python files
§  Note that while we do mention Copyright, we haven't done a full code provenance review and Copyright attribution and we'd like to address that as part of the next steps in becoming a full Project.
3.    Welcome participation and new contributors.
·         We look for a clear contribution policy
§  We have a CONTRIBUTORS.md<https://github.com/opendatacube/datacube-core/blob/develop/CONTRIBUTING.md> file
·         We ask that the project demonstrate collaboration, perhaps with a history of bug report or pull requests
§  We have a long history of contributions and code review on a number of repositories, including the core<https://github.com/opendatacube/datacube-core/pulls?q=is%3Apr> and the ows<https://github.com/opendatacube/datacube-ows> engine.
·         Projects are required to have a code of conduct
§  We have a code of conduct<https://github.com/opendatacube/datacube-core/blob/develop/code-of-conduct.md>.

So, can I please ask the Incubation Committee to make their assessment?

Kind regards,
