  Hi all,
  I am building a page to display maps with mapserver in the company I
work. I didn't start it yet, so I think there is time to ask you guys a
questions that came here where I work.
  We choose mapserver to draw our maps because it is free, widely used
and there was a good documentation. But we had another option, that was
to use the geotools package. Has anyone used this package? If yes, can
you tell me why you still choosed mapserver?
  That question came now because we realize now that mapserver does not
have direct access to our Oracle database, while we think tha the
geotools package has..
  Thanks in advance,
     Murilo
