Yesterday at Barcamp Kerala while Hiran V was proposing the Chamba project , there was lot of discussion on ' why not maya' and it also even went to a faculty of amritha questioning ' if you ask people to use blender you will get very less people ' and also suggested ' to use maya and release the code in public repo ' . Watching that discussion and a similar one where I had to answer on "why not mapmaker, google, eart,kml etc " . It went to a suggestion to prepare a slideshow/table or presentation highlighting the usefullness/advantages of blender when compared to its propreitary alternatives . I didn't want to compare something which I didn't use . If anyone has any links do share them .
