Once a project has been accepted for incubation, JA-SIG Incubation working group (IWG) would then:
...
preincubation or incubation, it is eligible for use of the following JA-SIG resources:
- SVN: It is expected that new portlet projects would will begin in the sandbox area of the JA-SIG SVN and move to the portlets SVN when promoted to sponsored status. Other new projects would begin a new project under the JA-SIG SVN.
- JIRA: Each incubating project would get receives its own JIRA project.
- WIKI: Each incubating project would have receives its own WIKI space on the JA-SIG wiki server. Incubating portlets will use the exisitng portlet space.
- Lists: Incubating portlets will use the existing portlet mailing lists while each regular projects project will have its own mailing list.
- Assist Web Presence: Each project receives its own webspace, supporting URLs of the form
http://www.ja-sig.org/products/cas

.
Once a project has been accepted for incubation, the following actions take place:
- The project officially becomes a candidate project in incubation under the auspices of JA-SIG.
- The IWG nominates a Mentor for the project, typically a JA-SIG community stakeholder who will act as a bridge between the IWG and the project (Mentor would also then serve as a member of the IWG).
- The IWG assists the candidate project in the initial start-up to use the JA-SIG resources described above. These resources should be set up in JA-SIG infrastructure unless IWG decides otherwise.
- The IWG assists the candidate project in performing appropriate licensing, contribution, trademark, and other legal arrangements

Newly incubated projects then perform the following actions:
- Indicate that the project is in incubation (though not yet fully sponsored/supported by JA-SIG).
- Display the JA-SIG logo to indicate affiliation.
- Use JA-SIG infrastructure for development and collaboration unless an alternate infrastructure is agreed by IWG to be more appropriate.
Note: Releases of projects in incubation are not officially endorsed by JA-SIG
Preincubation and contrib projects may indicate that hosting is provided by JA-SIG, but no other endorsement is implied.
The minimum requirements that a project must meet to exit the state of incubation (and should be working on fulfilling as part of the incubation process) are:
