"Maps" are: - a virtual server - a publishing point - a collection of layers - a collection of OGC services - a "nested" GeoServer? - ... not sure if any of the above helps in finding a better name. But I agree "map" is confusing and should be replaced. How does ESRI call the equivalent concept they have in IMS?
