[OSGeo-Discuss] End of life for Community Mapbuilder

[Gavin Fleming]

Mike's mention of the key role of a BoF in cooperation among projects is as good a reason as any to mention that you can plan your BoF session for 2008 here: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G2008_BOF_Sessions. Who knows where it will lead?

I just want to point out that a key event in this process was the web
mapping client BoF at Lausanne where all of the FOSS client projects got
together and decided to stop re-inventing the wheel.  For me, this is a
tangible demonstration of the benefits that OSGeo can achieve.
