Thanks Daniel. Actually, we are conducting a free Open Source training program in Chennai (India) particularly on MapServer and Quantum GIS in order to promote Open Source technologies. Since GeoServer already has a "Certified OGC Compliant" mark on its website, my audience might ask a question "Why not MapServer?"
I am not sure what should I answer them. Your help on this is highly appreciated.
