Looking at it some more I'm not sure we've done a very good job of
sorting the icons either.
The GeoTools folder (Maybe Utilities instead of Tools), not sure that
one makes sense. R should be in the Desktop folder anyways. As for how
to decide when something is Navigation and Maps seems fuzzy too. Mapfish
is definitely a Server, and the OSM editors seem to fall into a weird in
between land.
I'm also thinking about another folder: Databases with PGAdmin/Postgis
icon(doesn't exist) and the Spatialite GUI.
Other things to sort(I'll start doing some assuming I can figure it out):
Desktop:
Spatialite GIS
Servers:
Geoserver Start/Stop/Admin/Documentation
Geomajas
Deegree Start/Stop
GeoKettle
Navigation and Maps:
Mapnik? - or is that a Server in this case.
Thanks,
Alex
