Mapserver Development Environments?

You'd think that would be easy to find wouldn't you. The best that exists is:

  http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/link

There really should be a "Client Software" section but there isn't (yet) so the various links are scattered about the utilities section.

There are some important omissions:

  - CartoWeb (http://www.cartoweb.org/)
  - MapBender (http://www.mapbender.org - OGC-based but can use MapServer services)
  - Mapbuilder (http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAP/Home - also OGC-based)
  - ka-map (http://ka-map.maptools.org/ - Google-style mapping)
  - OpenLayers (http://www.openlayers.org/ - more Google-style mapping)
  - msCross (http://datacrossing.crs4.it/en_Documentation_mscross.html)
  - GeoMoose (http://www.geomoose.org/moose - a new one from the City of St. Paul)

and I bet I'm missing a couple of others.

I am looking for a site with some links to various development
environments for mapserver. That is, applications that help automate
some of the site development process. I recall there being a list of
these at one time, but now I am unable to find it on the mapserver site.

 

Thanks.
