-Nothing to see here - why? Because the work is being done on a module by module basis, and the results posted to the geotools wiki.
+This page has moved to the geotools wiki:
-We will post results here as they are made available.
+[https://github.com/geotools/geotools/wiki/geotools-provenance-review]
-You can find status, including IP status, from this page here:
-* [http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/Module+Matrix Module Matrix]
-A couple of modules have already encountered issues, mostly those working with propiatary systems such as ArcSDE or Oracle where our ability to distribute jars and drivers is in question.
-=== Actions ===
-The following actions have been taken in response to issues raised during the iccubation process.
-==== Turning Off Downloads ====
-After a public email on the GeoServer list, we have chosen to turn off historical downloads of the geotools platform, and produced a new download that does not contain ArcSDE support.
-We may choose to turn historical downloads on again, or issue a patch for each stable branch, depending on community needs and involvement.
-==== Contact EPSG Provideers ====
-Frank was kind enough to contact the prociders of the EPSG dataset and inform them of our difficulties in delivering the content verbatium for databases such as HSQL.
-==== Multi License code ====
-Some code has been donated to the the project under a range of conditions, we have chosen to include the appropriate information in a series of LICENSE.TXT files included with each binary.
-We will review these files to discuss any specific needs that must be addressed in client application code, or included documentation:
-*   The Developers Guide will credit each license
-*   The Developers Guide will be packaged and included with each release
-*   An About class will be created, and make a vailable a list of licenses, allowing client applications the ability to pop up a Swing Dialog as needed, or make use of their own presentation layer (say J2EE or SWT application.
-== Review ==
-=== Developers Guide ===
-Updated project header with the following changes:
-*    2002-2005 changed to 2002-2006
-*    Geotools2 changed to GeoTools
-Link to Developers Guide page modifed: [[http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOT/5.1+Coding+Conventions Coding Conventions]]
-TODO:
-*    Include listing of licenses covered by the code base
-*    Change release guide to include packaging of the developers guide
-=== Users Guide ===
-The users guide is currently under construction we have outstanding questions about documentation licenses and are waiting for feedback from the iccubation committee.
-TODO:
-*    Change release guide to include packaging of the users guide
-=== Source Code ===
-The reivew process is being intergrated into the development community, that is taken right into the source code where
-it can be tracked and versioned along with the code.
-The following files were created by Jody Garnett as part of the initial review process which completed on August 7th, 2006.
-These files are maintained, by the module maintainer associated with the section of code described.
-==== Module ====
-These modules make up the GeoTools library itself, and form a layered architecture covering a range of geospatial activities.
-* http://svn.geotools.org/geotools/trunk/gt/module/api/review.txt
-* http://svn.geotools.org/geotools/trunk/gt/module/coverage/review.txt
-* http://svn.geotools.org/geotools/trunk/gt/module/main/review.txt

-* http://svn.geotools.org/geotools/trunk/gt/module/svgsupport/review.txt
-==== Plug-in ====
-These plug-ins slot into the GeoTools library making additional capabilities and data formats avaiable.
--
-==== Extentions ====
-These modules are built on top of the geotools library and add additional analysis and functionality around the abstractions
-captured by the core library.
-==== Demo ====
-These files are used as teaching aids. We are considering releasing them as public domain to aliviate any initial adotpion concerns.
-* http://svn.geotools.org/geotools/trunk/gt/demo/data/review.txt
-* http://svn.geotools.org/geotools/trunk/gt/demo/property/review.txt
-==== Spike ====
-These files are not covered by the provenance review as they are experiments, and thus not distributed.
