<p>Hi Folks,</p>
<p>(Disclosure: I'm the person behind that blog post.)</p>
<p>> I wonder how this statistics would look like if MapServer
had a built-in web administration interface like the other
competing applications.</p>
<p>The fact MS is so high without it shows it may not be that
important, at least not to the core audience.</p>
<p>I think the biggest differentiator in the stats between the top
three may be the fact that MapServers don't have any sort of
catalog of services or other way to find other services on the
box. By which I mean, ArcGIS Server allows you to crawl it and get
all of the public services and datasets. GeoServer if there are
namespaces (their way of grouping things into services) you can go
up a level and see what the root is serving, thus potentially
finding more datasets and another service that way (but only one).
But MapServer doesn't have a mechanism like that apparently (I
asked on this list a couple years ago), which means that it's hard
to know if I've found everything on a specific box. That's the
biggest catch with the MapServer stat at least.<br>
</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
