Jeff,

This sounds great. It'd be nice to see some of this data as it will 
illuminate opportunities that could use a little help.

LocationTech provides services to service providers and those building 
products & services with open source.  There's good potential to bolster 
and strengthen this area of the ecosystem.

Making it easy for the 8M+ Eclipse user & developer community to use and 
create solutions which include open source geospatial technology will 
further help it grow.
