Tim, I think this article makes sense, but there are a number of advantages of the 'BSD-ing' either. Most of the commercial users wouldn't want to choose this project if it was GPL-d so they would want to reinvent the wheels instead of suggesting good enhancements for the project. This option has

Two things are getting mixed up here: - dotnetmap might be using mapserver without mentioning it - Sharpmap is indeed using GDAL/OGR projnet and more but they are fully open about it. Mapserver is NOT running beneath Sharpmap. SharpMap does it's own map rendering. Adam Hill schreef: I
