One issue is making releases. If you have a small community, then growing it is much easier if you have an active series of releases. It garners attention. Unfortunately, incubating projects have a little harder time making releases (either the initial release getting things in order, or gathering three +1 votes if they're small) Justin and I moved serf out of the ASF because it was too small at the time. We didn't have a community to make proper ASF releases. Cheers, -g
