[Incubator] Terra Draw

[Jody Garnett]

 Thanks James,

I see that the Terra Draw page is marked "Pending"? So I guess it is not
published yet ...

Great feedback thank you:


   - The "Add a Project" page is being written over the course of
   September; so there is indeed some duplication with the wiki and incubation
   committee page.
   - For "Add a Project" - perhaps we should add a bit to the top on
   requesting an OSGeo ID to this page. That way everything you need is in one
   spot...
   - Your point about email lists is noted - I was going to talk to the
   incubation committee about moving from mailing list to forum (so people can
   contact us using their OSGeo ID rather than subscribing to an email
   list...).
   - I am not sure what to do about the OSGeo sign up process, the "mantra"
   is more about connecting with a live human. And that we have an employer or
   school to contact in the event of spam / code of conduct / etc...  So I
   think it can be made better; but not automated? Perhaps have a short list
   of trusted email addresses: universities, partners, service providers, ...
   but not hotmail 🙂


Thanks so much
