Distinguish Java (Web) and Java (Desktop) ESRI and GNU/Linux? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bumbulski (talk • contribs) 07:06, August 27, 2007 (UTC)

Mapserver is available on all the platforms shown - it's shown as available on none of them.

[edit] Yes/No/Java

WTF does that mean? Is Java closer to Yes, or closer to No?

Java is platform independent so this makes sense thought there might be a better way to make this distinction. 198.190.230.61 21:01, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ESRI and GNU/Linux?

It should be stated that most ESRI software does NOT run on GNU/Linux (to my knowledge only the JAVA based viewer ArcExplorer) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bumbulski (talk • contribs) 07:06, August 27, 2007 (UTC)

Actually their server products run on Linux. http://www.esri.com/software/standards/linux-support.html --72.208.195.253 17:36, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Global Mapper?

Global Mapper should be added to this list
