FreeGIS is not really a product. It is  a project that want to connect
the people working on and working with Free GIS Software.

Perhaps it is a good idea to speak about the dynamics in the
Free GIS Software arena. These dynamics are very promising
in terms of further integration/combination of existing
products. qgis/grass is just one example.

The second dynamics woth tpo mention is the emerging
businesses around Free GIS Software products. There is
an increasing number professional services available.
