I'd back "Arramagong" as a great name for an Australian localised
version of agoterra, the "OSGeo" version.  Apart from localised data and
eventually educational material meeting local syllabus requirements I'm
not sure what differences there would be though.  Perhaps material
designed for the walis student mapping competition.
