[Live-demo] Projects Sponsors (ie who pays for your supper)

[Jody Garnett]

I am really happy with the presentation thus far (a few trouble cases where projects do not have a sexy screen snap).

One thing I traditionally like to provide is a shout out to organisations that sponsor/support the different projects. I find it important when evaluating a project for my own use; and such information is often difficult to tease out of the various websites.

I understand we did not include this on our project overviews; but if the information could be obtained I really would like to credit those who pay for our supper.

With this in mind could I ask project reps on this email list to reply?

As an example:
- GeoServer: OpenGeo, Refractions Research, Axios, GeoSolutions, The Where Group, LISAsoft, Camptocamp, Alkante (from their commercial support page)
- uDig: Axios, CamptoCamp, HydroloGIS, LISAsoft, Refractions Research (from their user page)
