[OSGeo-Discuss] online open source polygon mapping, like OSM?

[Nitin Gadia]

It looks like the project can be done by starting it with GeoMoose, but I
want to survey all the other web mapping tools available. Geomoose is made
with mapserver and openlayers. Perhaps Geoserver and other tools/software
have advantages over mapserver?

I'm starting from scratch, so you have to bear with me!
