Peter,
Coming back to this question of categorisation. It seems that EOxServer 
is similar to Rasdaman, and probably should be listed next to it? Is 
that reasonable?

If so, should both EOxServer and Rasdaman be categorised under "Data 
Stores" or under Web Services?

To make that decision, I'd consider how people are most likely to access 
each application. If it is via a Web Service, then I'd err toward a Web 
Service categorisation.
