That wasn't the intention. It's just based on an observation made by DanielM which was that MSE seemed to be tailored more for the enterprise. I don't know MS's user base as well as he does, so I respected his and Frank's thoughts on it I recall that the name was suggested by Daniel, and so we took the name suggestion and ran with it.
But I see the point here. These are good points. I no more want to see MapServer be characterized as being incapable of being used by an enterprise than I want to see MSE be characterized as not being a community product. -----Original Message----- From: UMN MapServer Users List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of thomas bonfort Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2005 5:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] MapServer Foundation - Open Letter On 11/30/05, Frank Warmerdam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 11/29/05, Adam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > MapServer Community Edition is good. > > Folks, > > I think this name sucks.

While I agree completely with that point, following the same reasoning implies that MS cheetah hasn't any entreprise capabilities cheers, tb
