• 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.

• excerpt from mail exchange on incubation list concerning the Jenkins-based regression testing environment of rasdaman:

  ...
  >> OK, this test wiki you reference is a good start, but I notice it is still in draft state, with "TBD" and "TODO" text in it.
  >> This would need to be complete before I'd consider rasdaman is ready to complete incubation.
  >
  > Hm, are really all graduated projects without any TBDs etc? I found TBDs on osgeo.org, and 455 TODOs on PostGIS. How would you think about that in comparison?
  > Work anyway will progress in due course and depending on project situation, it's in our own vest interest.
  
  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.

• 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 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.
