Progress in the incubator

The OSGeo incubation process takes place in three stages:

  1. Initial Application
  2. Incubation
    1. Project Status: project details, and a few resourcing questions for the system admin committee (see <a _fcknotitle="true" href="Project Status Template">Project Status Template</a>).
    2. Provenance Review: quick check to ensure the project is open source and has permission to distribute its source code.
    3. Final Checklist: review the project procedures and gather requested information for OSGeo participation
  3. Graduation

The following projects are currently in OSGeo incubation:

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.

The initial projects to go through the incubation process helped define what is required. The above pages tracked the progress (and capture the experience) of these projects.
