The Boost Incubator is called an incubator, so just starting from the name I thought it should only list libraries which are still incubated, not those already hatched and happily running about. There are some practical arguments as well:

- Libraries accepted into Boost are listed on boost.org, so listing them also on blincubator seems unnecessary.
- Duplicated records which need to be kept in sync manually tend to become inconsistent.
- Having a shorter list on the blincubator makes scanning the list of projects by eye easier.
