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>

</div>
<div> Some thoughts:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>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.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. "Databases" might be better as "Spatial Data Storage and
Management". I'd take pgRouting off that category.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>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...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>4. Create a new category of specialised ('vertical'?)
applications, containing such as: zyGrib, OpenCPN, MB-System
and possibly Ushahidi and Sahana Eden. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>5. Put pgRouting and the remaining GPS-related packages
into a Tracking and Routing category.</div>
