 We would like to request the following services from OSGeo for the new
 "Fusion" Open Source project:

  - SVN
  - Trac
  - mailing lists: fusion-users and fusion-dev

 Fusion is a new AJAX application development framework for MapGuide and
 MapServer. It has been developed by DM Solutions and they have announced
 their intention to open source it at FOSS4G2006 (MIT/X11 license).

 A snapshot of Fusion is already available as part of the MapGuide Open
 Source project, however, we believe that those SVN, Trac and Mailing list
 services from OSGeo would be really helpful for Fusion to become a real
 open source project and build up a community of users and developers
 around it. Once Fusion has built up a community and matured a bit it will
 likely apply for OSGeo incubation, but it's not there yet.

 What are the steps to ask OSGeo to consider providing those services to
 the new Fusion project? Is this ticket sufficient?
