"Good news, everyone! A brand-new version of QGIS has been released (changelog). QGIS, a full-featured GPL-licensed GIS program has been under active development for twelve years and is now at version 2.2. Funded by a wide range of organizations, the QGIS project lets users create professional-quality maps that compete well with the output of established proprietary GIS packages like ArcView and MapInfo. Notable features of the program include its support for a wide range of file formats, modular design, map server, web publishing, as well as easy python scripting, and an extensive python plugin library.
For those interested, versions are available for GNU/Linux, BSD, Windows, MacOS X, and Android here."

I think you mean packages.
Packets carry data on a network.
The thing about this field is that it is so labor intensive to, and requires a lot of diverse skills that the cost of the software ends up being a tiny part of the bill.
Its wonderfully geeky work if you can get it.
No, you are mistaken. I've always had this sig.
