Comments for James Fee GIS Bloghttp://www.spatiallyadjusted.com/2008/06/25/esri-arcgis-93-ships-tomorrow/#comment-35042 [Comments for James Fee GIS Blog] The majority of people doing GIS have to wrangle with it on the desktop day-in and day-out putting in their eight hours a day and change doing stuff like editing parcel maps, generating maps for various county departments to use, responding to emergency demands, computing sales tax with complex spatial SQL, doing topology overlays to see how their utility rights of way intersect special legislative regions like wetlands or tribal lands or whatever. I could be wrong about this but I bet most readers of this blog do that sort of thing and are darned well interested in whether or not a return to time-sharing is going to give them the increased performance they need to deal with the increasing demands of their jobs at a time of reduced funding.

People can use search engines like Google to discover maps and other services you publish and launch them directly in Web clients for easy integration with other Geoweb content.

Thinking in GIS[Thinking in GIS] Spatial Database for Postgres and ArcGis users: how to choose: For my (little) experience, ArcMap is necessary for a bunch of important functions (like advanced editing and plottings) that gvSIG (the best OS Desktop GIS AFAIK) don't implement at this time, so ZigGIS looks extremely useful to maintain a OpenSource architecture (like PostGIS+GeoServer+gvSIG) without lose any advantage (using ArcGIS only when I really need).

The setup process is much better and generally features have been stuck on the side, not many features have been rewritten (one big exception beng iFTS), this means you don't have to use many of the 2008 features if you don't want to.

Comments for James Fee GIS Bloghttp://www.spatiallyadjusted.com/2008/02/05/bringing-open-source-gis-into-an-esri-shop/#comment-33130 [Comments for James Fee GIS Blog] Comment on Bringing Open Source GIS into an “ESRI Shop” by Dimitri: My only caveat is that what you download those features in would be by default in one of the 80 GIS or DBMS formats such as KML, which Manifold writes to (it is immensely popular as a KML editor to create Google Earth content) but not to formats like Atom which no one uses for GIS data. It is difficult to find a serious GIS package of any kind which cannot read one of the commonly used GIS formats, such as shapefiles, so if interchange with other GIS tools is what you ask, yes, sure.
