Well, no myths but questions ore statements I was confronted with:

-"what can I do with this data?"

I think some people are not familiar with the freedom of free geodata.

-"Quality has to cost something"

Some people don't want to talk with you, if you mention datasets are
free. But that're probably these ones who never heard about FOSS

-"What benefits do I have if I contribute?"

Even if they are using FOSS they still ask what the get back if the
share documentation, patches etc.


...just a few thoughts

There is an subversion repository: http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/

Maybe that has some sources you could use.

Here are my 2 cents:

- -Frontend / GUI
mapbender
openlayers
mapguide

- -Renderer
geoserver
mapserver
mapnik

- -Server side processing
zoo-project
52north

- -"GIS Army Knife"
deegree
geomajas
qgis-mapserver

But geonetwork doesn't fit in...
