Khanh Le: Yes, of course we can collaborate together.
> What are the similarities and differences?
Khanh Le: In my opinion, there are
similarities:
* Both projects target at mobile platform
* Open-source
* Based on open standards
differences:
* JVNMobileGIS use Java. MOSS4G is going to use C/C++ (which may be
more powerful).
* JVNMobileGIS is platform-independent at the beginning. MOSS4G will
be developed for Windows CE first.
> Do the projects compete with or complement each other?
Khanh Le: I don't see any competition for now. Two projects should
complement each other.
