Assessment on Mapserver "Packages"

[Stefan Schwarzer]

Hi there,

recent years have shown a steady increase in mapserver software  
packages, such as ka-map, chameleon, cartoweb, primagis etc. etc.

It's difficult to keep track of all these developments and get, once  
a new project gets started, an overview over the different tools and  
their functionalities.

So, the question is: Does anyone know of any kind of (comparative)  
"assessment" of these products? Which tools exists, what language  
they use, what technology, what functionality etc. etc.?

Thanks for any hints,

Stefan
