Hey all,
Just a quick invitation to sign up for our C# DotSpatial Library workshop at
FOSS4G. We're excited to show you all what the DotNet/DotSpatial group has
accomplished in the last year, and for any of you who like to code in C# (or
want to learn) we hope you'll enjoy this workshop. By the
Nitin, your email was great to read because it highlights the healthy state
of affairs in the FOSS4g world... Too many great choices!

I'm copying your question to the DotNet OSGeo group who might have some
suggestions. You could look at both SharpMap and DotSpatial as ASP.NET back

Dear OSGeo Discuss List:
The MapWindow project team is pleased to announce that we are hosting an
OSGeo DotNet focused conference and workshops June 13-15, 2011 in San
Diego, California. There is more information and a call for abstracts on the
conference web site:
Great point Ravi. People continually tell me they like MapWindow for its

Hi David. For what it's worth, MapWindow just passed the 300,000 download
mark, with 6,000 per month. Also the .NET world has an alternative to

developed by a large .NET team on codeplex and is quickly making progress. -
