Agreed James, sometimes our IT industry is crazy making :)

Here is the question we ask people before choose:


What kind of technology are you looking for?

* Portal: We would like a ready-to-use integrated solution for creating our
own mapping website, mapping portal, or SDI for spatial information.


I would like GeoMOOSE to be listed here, if you have *any* suggestions on
what to name it other than portal please bring it on!

(Keep in mind that this is the IT category, so we are talking to computing
professionals here, so we need to think in terms of application tiers
rather that spatial-data-infrastructure). And yes GeoMOOSE will be listed
in multiple categories.
