Incubation

These action items have to be checked for during the whole incubation process.

These items are not to be signed as done during incubation, as they may change during incubation. They are to be looked into and described in the status reports and completed in the request for incubation signoff.

  • Are there three or more independent committers?

  • Are project decisions being made in public by the committers?
  • Are the decision-making guidelines published and agreed to by all of the committers? -YES

Licensing awareness

  • Are all licensing, trademark, credit issues being taken care of and acknowleged by all committers? -YES
