Nothing that thought out actually. I'm just going to be doing a push on GeoServer, and it'd be nice to point out good, stable clients that are known to work with GeoServer. At this point I don't really want to push the integrated GIS suite of tools.

Don't modify for release dates for our 'business case', but I would advise you get the 1.0.0 release out sooner rather than later. It's unglamorous work, but it's the most important from the perspective of users. And note that for coordination with GeoServer you need to release it with some lead time for us to integrate the latest.

Chris,
Could you please expand on your marketing ideas here.

Are you suggesting that Geoserver/Udig/Mapbuilder coordinate our releases
and put out a joint publicity statement?

This sounds like the first steps toward an integrated GIS suite of tools.

Mapbuilder has not made a commitment for a 1.0 release date yet (we are just
about to release 1.0rc2) but we could potentially set a release date within
2 to 4 weeks if there was a strong business case (and support) to do so.

Awesome, these are great answers. What's the timeframe on 1.1M4? And for 1.1.0? I was going to do a bit of a 'marketing' push for GeoServer 1.3.0, but didn't manage to really get to it. Perhaps I could do it for udig 1.1.0 + GeoServer 1.3.1 or something... We could go for a few articles in publications that highlight how well they can work together. Would be great to get a mapbuilder 1.0.0 as well, promote our whole little stack at once... Not sure on their timing for 1.0 though.
