[kde-community] Fwd: Incubating project

[Jeremy Whiting]

Boudewijn,

That's a great idea. I can help get some quotes, but I haven't ever
created a dot story before. Promo people what do you need in order to
make this happen?

BR,
Jeremy

Following up on this, I'd love to have us do a bit of promo about the
succesful incubation of projects -- we've got quite a few, wikifm,
kdenlive, gcompris, tupi and probably more that I'm not too aware of.
An article on the dot with some quotes from maintainers would be
pretty cool.
