past, with mixed results, but what might be the best way of
describing a project that crosses boundaries (as described
in this thread)? Where they could fit into more than one
box. I’ve always wondered why there wasn’t a matrix of
capabilities associated with the projects under the OSGeo
umbrella.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">As I'm
reviewing the OSGeo-Live overview contents [1], I think
that we should be recategorising some of the projects.
Here are my suggestions<br>
<br>
Rasdaman - Move from Databases to Web Services (I
understand it is best described as a WCS)<br>
<br>
GDAL - Move from "Spatial Tools" to "Geospatial Libraries"<br>
<br>
OSSIM - Move from "Desktop" to "Spatial Tools"<br>
<br>
Geopublisher & AtlasStyler - Move from "Desktop" to a
new "Prior OSGeoLive Projects" section<br>
<br>
Any objections or other suggestions?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"> Some thoughts:<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">1. "Browser Clients" doesn't seem a
very informative or accurate description of the projects
listed, several of which have server-side components.
"Web Mapping and GIS" might be better. Or something
else.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2. "Databases" might be better as
"Spatial Data Storage and Management". I'd take
pgRouting off that category.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">3. I'd take everything after SAGA (ie
OSSIM onwards) off the Desktop GIS category, so that
this category is purely general purpose GIS packages.
OSSIM, Geopublisher, AtlasStyler, osgEarth, and
MB-System are not 'Desktop GIS' as understood by your
average GIS person...<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">4. Create a new category of
specialised ('vertical'?) applications, containing such
as: zyGrib, OpenCPN, MB-System and possibly Ushahidi and
Sahana Eden. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">5. Put pgRouting and the remaining
GPS-related packages into a Tracking and Routing
category.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">6. Think maybe a categorical index is
a bit simplistic and maybe we should just tag everything
instead.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">7. Wonder why OSSIM and OTB are in
different categories and think it's getting late I
should just go to bed instead.<o:p></o:p></p>
