[Chameleon] general question

[dream police]

Hi List,

This is a question of general order addressed at all present and past users
of chameleon. I would like to learn more about Web Gis and had a few
questions, the answers of which are not easily findable by simple web
search. Chameleon looks great to me but I am looking for a long term
solution and so would appreciate sound advice from Web Gis specialists.

My questions:

1) Is chameleon obsolete for the functionality it proposes to fulfill? (its
mailing list is somewhat inactive compared to those of other web gis
development environments: kamap, cartoweb, mapbender)
2) If yes, why?
3) If yes, what alternatives could you propose to accomplish the same goals?
4) For what reasons?
5) What is the solution that confronts best the future challenges of Web
Gis?

Thanks in advance for all replys!

Johnny
