Comment(by hamish):

 mmm, as far as demoing them goes they are here as back-end infrastructure
 tools for programmers, not end-user applications as such.  Of course
 technically they are also browser-code that interface with the end-user,
 but the user wouldn't really know that unless you told them. (e.g. does
 the OSM overview/quickstart even mention that they are used?)

 also note that when something fits into multiple categories in a fuzzy
 way, trying to balance the number of menu entries between the categories
 has been used as part of the decision about where to put things.

 Are they "Browser Facing GIS"? in the sense that GIS means "anything
 geospatial" I guess, but not really in the same class as WPS..
