[Cartoweb-users] Cartoweb Functionality

[andresch at iway.na]

Hi Max

First, Thanks for the feedback.

I have already managed to learn how to built a mapserver map file, but 
do not know PHP, Javascript, etc.

I have a friend that does, but he seems not interested helping - 
waisting my time.

I also know GIS and am using Arcmap. The issue is I want urgently to 
finish building the portal framework and design the website so that I 
can try and sellmy idea. As long as it is still in my head - nobody 
will want to buy it. Where can I go without spending too much money - 
whileI still have no client. I am more than willing to learn, but this 
takes time and I would like to be able to start presenting solutions 
early next year.

This is the problem I have with most of the opensource stuff. I tried 
mapbender = nobody bothered to answer my email.
p.mapper = same story
geoserver = very limited responce
native mapserver = wel I have it up and running but does not provide 
allI need and the responce is also limited.

Well, lets see that is the situation with Cartoweb...
