We are trying for a progression Community project ---- incubation --->
OSGeo project.

Thanks for working through this Cameron, Vicky and everyone we have not had
a project apply since OSGeo Community projects were created last year and
we will have a few of these discussion as we learn the ropes.

Aside: We just went through a round of discussion on this with respect to
the presentation of existing projects in the incubation program. A
community project is an acknowledgement that a project is doing something
right, and a way in which OSGeo is helping promote open source. The larger
goal for OSGeo is outreach on open source as a better way to develop
software and OSGeo Live can be a great example to be followed.

Checking the repositories now both OSGeoLive and OSGeoLive-Docs have a
little bit of work to do before they would quality as a community project
(specifically a CONTRIBUTING.md for GitHub projects that is shown to
potential contributors when they make a pull request). But we can discuss
this on the incubation list when you are ready :)
