+0 for QGIS Server and +1 for QGIS Mobile.
While I like "QGIS Server" as a name, there may be different "QGIS
Servers" in the future? Maybe a QGIS WFS server? Or a QGIS WPS or
geoprocessing server? Or a QGIS printserver?
I would see "QGIS Server" as a family of upcoming potential servers and
"QGIS WMS server" for the great work that Marco just did. I also still
like "QGIS Mapserver" or "QGIS Webmap Server" which actually describes
what it is - serving styled maps for web-connected devices and applications.
Any other opinions?
