Thank you Markus,
I will teach FOSS4G upcoming days. The article appeared right on time for me to include it in the references (-; Hopefully it will develop to cover most of the existing FOSS4G projects. A roadmap of FOSS4G projects?

Best regards:
Raf

Hello lists,

As you can i see im mailing this message to some lists around the web
(im sorry if thats a problem).

At the moment i am writing my BSc thesis (Geography) focusing the
development of a open source software and database for logging and analysing
traffic accidents in Uberlândia, MG - Brazil.

I am dedicating a chapter in my thesis to explaining Open Source
Software, and OSS for GIS. i searched the web for some history of OSS in

general, but i found too many different sources. So i come to you,
developers of GIS OSS, to see if you can give me references of where to
search for the history and process regarding this theme.
