Woo-hoo! There is now! Autodesk has released MapServer under the LGPL, and it runs on Linux. http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/051128/sfm053.html?.v=33 All the news articles seem to be based on (or repeat verbatim) the press release from Autodesk, which uses the term "web mapping". I thought for a while that it was network mapping, like show you nodes and ping remote computers and stuff. But they mean that it's a server/client model, and it serves maps of geography (or whatever else spatial you feed it). Now we just need a useful source of maps! -todd -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
