Nice start.

I suggest you also create a diagram showing the Geospatial Stack.
And a table matching common Proprietary products with OS products would be
good.
The presentation by Aaron Raciot has a good table that could be used:

11805.ppt

(Actually, this presentation has lots of good stuff which you could draw
upon).
