All,

Some clarification is needed here (as already provided to the PMC).

The uDig project has been in a proposal state with Eclipse Foundation for approx. 4 years. Never gone into incubation due to the fact that it contained GPL. And 4 years is a lot these days.

Perhaps ‘termination’ carries too definitive a meaning. ‘Shelved’ could be used as a better term. Information from the past is not lost.

My suggestion is to have all involved scope uDig’s future again once RPE has reaped results. And put a new proposal forward, so we can actually start with incubation. Incorporating all insights and experiences from the

Hi folks,

Thanks & Best regards
