Hi Cameron.
Sure! I would like it a lot. I plan to publish the 4th version of the comparison on next month. So far, the decision tree is just an idea, but I think with enough time it could be done. Regards.

German, I am very excited by the cross project comparison work you have been doing. I have just spent a week at the OSGeo booth at the international conference for surveyors, and one of common questions people ask is "I'm current using XXX to do YYY, does Open Source provide a tool which could do something similar? ... Which would you recommend?" I'd love to be able to point to, and hand out your webmapping comparison table. So I'd like to have your webmap comparison table and decision tree incorporated into the OSGeo LiveDVD which we were handing out at the conference, and probably also make it available as a flier. If you can create the material, I can help you get the material onto the LiveDVD and into OSGeo Marketing channels. geotux_tux...@linuxmail.org wrote: > (Sorry, I don't know how to follow the thread, I'm just registered) > > Hi all, I'm Germán Carrillo and it's a pleasure to have been invited > to > this discussion, thanks Cameron! > > As Cameron said, I've been mantaining a web map client comparison for > the > last year and a half.
