World Wind Java + GeoServer + PostGIS = ?

Steve says it all via IM:
its all about geoserver, postgis, WWJ, and openlayers
He’s probably right. Between that combination and SQL Server 2008 + VE, we have to very impressive platforms for those who want to program in Java or .NET.

I can’t believe what you wrote on your image rollover.
I’d throw uDig in to the mix too on the Java side, to let the more traditional GIS crowd play and do their editing thing. Though hopefully with a bit of work we can do WFS-T editing through WorldWind – something that Google Earth doesn’t offer, even in pay versions. We’ll be improving the WFS datastore for GeoTools in the coming year, for use in uDig, but at least the backend communication should be re-usable with WW.
very nice image and tooltip, James!!!
I’m begining to see the innovation is outside the ESRI stack these days. I’m so freaking sick of poor ESRI Java support. Why we still bother with ESRI and Java I have no idea.
I’m a sucker for Mechagodzilla, what can I say.
Ok, so you have the Java stuff going there J, but how is the new Mapguide looking? As a competitor? We know the cose has ESRI beat, but how about the FDO infrastructure?
