Rasdaman is part of [http://live.osgeo.org/ OSGeo Live]. For running rasdaman from OSGeo Live, see [http://rasdaman.org/wiki/OSGeoLiveGetStarted this quickstart].

== [http://www.osgeo.org OSGeo] Incubation Process ==
The rasdaman community project is being incubated by  [http://www.osgeo.org OSGeo]. 
This page provides information pertaining to this process and its timeline, in particular: the Incubation checklist page [wiki:OSGeoIncubationChecklist].

   * 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.''

'''2015-07-24'''
   * To our great surprise we discovered, when visiting the [https://www.openhub.net/p/rasdaman rasdaman OpenHub page], that now [attachment:osgeo-falsely-claims-rasdaman.png 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 [http://www.rasdaman.com rasdaman GmbH] and [http://www.jacobs-university.de/lsis Jacobs University] jointly. We have contacted the !OpenHub operator and hope for correction of this Coup d'Etat asap.
    * Addendum: Discovering new (or unaware of) !OpenHub functionality we found this: ''23300793 - Project 'rasdaman': Claimed by Organization 'OSGeo - The Open Source Geospatial Foundation' '' done in 2013

Some TBDs are more important than others.
OSGeo is a stamp of quality, and a core component of quality is to have established testing.
As an incubation committee member, I'd vote -1 on incubating a project that has TBDs in their quality processes.

'''2014-oct-31'''
   * 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 [http://www.osgeo.org/incubator 1].

'''2014-oct-30'''
   * 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 [http://www.osgeo.org/incubator currently listed] 22 OSGeo incubation committee members only 4 appear active - no one else participated in voting nor discussion. 

'''2014-oct-10'''
   * 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 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.

'''2014-sep-03'''
   * Following our status inquiry, mentor of "very poor time" - need to wait "a few weeks" (at least)

'''2014-jun-11'''
   * Next requirements issued, implemented on wiki pages and checklist.

'''2014-mar-26'''
   * Last requirements implemented on wiki pages.

'''2012-jul-22'''
   * Code provenance inspection has been completed, see the [wiki:CodeProvenance code provenance review]. Waiting for assessment.

'''2012-jan-xx'''
   * The rasdaman community project is accepted for incubation by [http://www.osgeo.org OSGeo].

'''2010-apr-05'''
   * The rasdaman community project officially applies for [http://www.osgeo.org OSGeo] incubation by filing a [http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/553 ticket].
