Stefan,
You have good content in the GeoPublisher Overview docs.
I've restructured slightly to fit the template headings, and made a few 
minor corrections.

In particular, I set the heading sub-category as "Electronic Library 
Manager". Is that a suitable description? If not, can you please correct 
and use another title.

    Electronic Library Manager¶ <cid:part2.03000903.00050101 at gmail.com>

Geopublisher is an atlas authoring system which enables easy publication 
of geo-data, documents, images, videos, and statistics in form of 
digital multimedia atlases. These atlases are effectively a minimal, 
pre-configured, end-user GIS which offers selected functionality only 
where its meaningful.

Geopublisher provides tools for quality assurance and multilingual 
meta-data management. No in-depth knowledge of HTML, SLD or XML is 
required to create an atlas. Atlases can be directly published on CD, 
DVD, memory stick, external hard-drive or the Internet. The software is 
platform-independent.

Geopublisher's unique features make it especially applicable in the 
fields of international research, participatory GIS, capacity building, 
and development cooperation.
