Asle, 
 
You have laid out a good list of tools.  What is the problem that you are 
trying to solve?  The answer to your 'what next' really depends on what you are 
trying to do.  
 
David.

        Subject: [mapserver-users] Newbie - installed Mapserver - where next?
        
        
        Hi,
        I am a newbie and have installed Mapserver 5.2.1 on OS X Server 10.5.  
I have been able to display maps that I exported from QGIS and though  some 
problems are displaying the maps.
        
        Now the next step is to get a framework around the maps and I have  
tried MapScript but I don´t have PHP CGI on the server :-(
        I also have tried GeoServer which I really don´t understand because I  
have downloaded the GeoServer.app and when I run it I have no idea how  to 
configure it since all the docs talk about using the "war" file but  I can´t 
find anything about using the GeoServer.app. I also am trying  OpenLayers with 
a little success.
        
        I would be glad for any tips as to where I should go from here. I have  
installed postgreSQL and POSTGIS and my goal is to write mapdata to  postgreSQL 
and display maps for that source. I also want to be able to  enter data into 
the maps i.ex. click a point in the map and enter  location data for that 
coordinate that is written to database so it is  displayed later.
        
        I am glad for any ideas for a newbie :-)
