how about grouping them for "start" and "stop":

Servers
|_ start
   |_ deegree
   |_ geoserver
   |_ geonetwork
   |_ geomajas
   |_ mapserver
   |_ mapnik
   |_ mapguide
   |_ 52n
   |_ ...
|_ stop
   |_ deegree
   |_ geoserver
   |_ geonetwork
   |_ geomajas
   |_ mapserver
   |_ mapnik
   |_ mapguide
   |_ 52n
   |_ ...

this would cut the length in half.

greetings,
Judit
