----
I am presently +0 as check against our requirements
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Incubation_Committee#Step_2:_Join_Community_Projects_Program>
:

1. Be geospatial:
- readme:
https://github.com/Giswater/giswater_water_models/blob/master/README.md
- product page: https://www.osgeo.org/projects/giswater/ <-- looks great!
- docs: https://www.giswater.org/giswater-manual/

2. free license or open source license
- GPL: https://github.com/Giswater/docs/blob/master/LICENSE
- check headers: ... not sure about this one?

Checking:
- I did spot some exe files committed:
https://github.com/Giswater/giswater_water_models
-
https://github.com/Giswater/giswater_dbmodel/blob/master-3.5/dev/basic/gw_fct_getinfofrompolygon.sql
- lacks header
-
https://github.com/Giswater/giswater_dbmodel/blob/master-3.5/dev/admin/gw_fct_admin_multiplicate_network.sql
has header
- so probably some more work to do here ..
 https://github.com/Giswater/gw_plantools_plugin

3. welcome participation
- https://github.com/Giswater/docs/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md,
https://github.com/Giswater/docs/blob/master/github/pdf/code_of_conduct.pdf
- https://github.com/Giswater/giswater_qgis_plugin has lots of issues and
prs
- https://github.com/Giswater/docs/tree/master/association/code_of_conduct

For some additional context Giswater already has an association setup which
as I understand it is communicating with the OSGeo board to establish a
relationship. Similar to QGIS Association on this partner page:
