 In November 2019, rasdaman has been adopted by OSGeo as a [https://www.osgeo.org/projects/rasdaman/ community project]. The rasdaman team is proud and happy about this recognition of its 10-year contribution of the open-source datacube engine.

+== OSGeo Incubation History ==
 The rasdaman community project has been being incubated by [http://www.osgeo.org OSGeo] for over 6 years, until finally a majority of the incubation committee voted for not accepting rasdaman. The sole reason being that the Project Steering Committee (PSC) is not open enough to accept anybody, irrespective of having sufficient knowledge about rasdaman and Array Databases. This would lead to decisions made by a group whose composition and skills remain unclear, and not on merely scientific and technological insight as the rasdaman project has adopted since its inception many years ago, having led to the acknowledged technology position rasdaman has today. Comparative governance models can be found, e.g., with the Linux kernel.
 
 In short: While all of OSGeo's [wiki:OSGeoIncubationChecklist Incubation checklist] is fulfilled, OSGeo additionally imposes a "design by committee" approach whereas rasdaman successfully pursues "design by science and innovation". This ultimately has led to rasdaman not becoming an OSGeo project. Effectively, this discussion has made OSGeo establish the "community projects" category which does not have this governance requirement, and subsequently rasdaman has become a community project indeed (see above).
