  • Our mentor finds new tasks for us: This is something that we'll need to work on before we put Rasdaman up for graduation again. I'm still buried in my priority task, so I have not had time to look at incubation issues yet. Sorry.

  • To our great surprise we discovered, when visiting the rasdaman OpenHub page, that now OSGeo is set as project owner (while rasdaman, at this moment, is stuck in the incubation process since 5 years and 3 months). This is obviously wrong as rasdaman is run by rasdaman GmbH and Jacobs University jointly. We have contacted the OpenHub operator and hope for correction of this Coup d'Etat asap.
    • Addendum: Discovering new (or unaware) OpenHub functionality we found this: 23300793 - Project 'rasdaman': Claimed by Organization 'OSGeo - The Open Source Geospatial Foundation' done in 2013

  • A kind request on clarifying rules and procedures of incubation voting remains unanswered:
    • what is the status of votes cast?
    • what is the committee's approach when quorum is not reached?
    • voting commenced on Oct 16 so closed by Oct 29 midnight (10 biz days), Jody decided to cancel after that period (Oct 30); this puzzles me.
    • where are the procedures laid down so that I can learn these details? Could not find anything on 1.

  • Jody Garnett decides to "lets table this motion and continue with discussion". No official voting statistics is published, but personal counting says that from the currently listed 22 OSGeo incubation committee members only 4 appear active - no one else participated in voting nor discussion.

  • Surprisingly, Jody Garnett states for OSGeo that "Even for OSGeo projects a PSC is not required" - something which has been stated as a must-have for rasdaman to obtain incubation.

2014-oct-10

  • Our mentor, Bruce Bannerman, moves on the incubation list to graduate rasdaman from OSGeo incubation. Jody Garnett sets a voting period of 10 work days, hence ending on 2014-oct-30.
