Interesting discussion!

Is there a solid list somewhere that describes which mapserver related
projects are active an which are not?

I run into this a lot when advising customers on where to go. I would
really like to know the statusses on:
- p.mapper
- kaMap
- cartoweb
- sharpMap
- Rosa as used in GMap example
- postGIS
- msSQLSpatial

with development of mapserver, gdal and ogr I have no concern, these seem
to be extremely active and a good example of how OpenSource can really do
the work!
