The project incubation committee is responsible for overseeing the incubation process for new projects entering the foundation. The incubation committee provides resources to assist new projects to reach full membership, and makes recommendations to the board when they feel projects have completed incubation.

Progress in the incubator
The OSGeo incubation process takes place in three stages:
- Initial Application
- Incubation
- Project Status: project details, and a few resourcing questions for the system admin committee (see Project Status Template).
- Provenance Review: quick check to ensure the project is open source and has permission to distribute its source code.
- Final Checklist: review the project procedures and gather requested information for OSGeo participation
- Graduation
The following projects are currently in OSGeo incubation:
- gvSIG: http://www.osgeo.org/gvsig
- MetaCRS: http://trac.osgeo.org/metacrs/
- MetaCRS Incubation Status

- no check list provided
- Opticks: http://opticks.org

The above pages are used to track the progress of incubation projects and are used by the developer team (and OSGeo mentor). In many cases the links
will take you to a project specific wiki or website in order to be closer to their target community.
When projects have completed the incubation checklist their mentor will recommend them to the Incubation committee for graduation.
