Hi,

my personal thoughts about this:

Nice to get an idea of such an application, but I would think that we 
("the mapserver-users") have a more sophisticated approach in mind.

This  'mapserver of mapserver-users' could act as a kind of business 
card for the mapserver, as well as the people that work with it. This 
could be a nice thing to show people that ask for actual mapserver 
implementations.

Just some short use case, I can think of:

-) I want to find all mapserver users (and their applications) around 
the place I live, Vienna, Austria.
-) I'm going to Athens, Greece next week, is someone working with 
mapserver over there?
-) Who are possible mapserver-users I could invite to an regional 
mapserver meeting?

regards,
alex.
