This page coordinates OSGeo Advocacy. This comprises explanations and definitions of terms used in conjunction with developing, using, disseminating (spreading) and enhancing Free and Open Source Software. Additionally it should enhance availability and accessibility of information about best practices examples and large scale usage scenarios. Advocacy helps new users and developers find out and learn what is special about this place.

Examples

Most Free Software Projects operate a web site where you can find examples of all kinds of solutions, again ranging in scale from the personal website mashup up to state- or worldwide infrastructures with millions of users.

How could OSGeo provide more information on specific examples to show the high level of quality and reliance of some packages as well as the ease of use of other pieces of code. Would it make sense to collect links to galleries here?
