1d	comment	Can ArcPy collapse layer in current data frame? You should be able to suppress the automatic load using one of the Geoprocessing options here. That way I think you should be able to get control over adding the collapsed layer file and replacing its data source with the raster data you have just created.
2d	comment	Match Lines with Data Driven Pages I received Jim's images and can see that this is a sophisticated requirement. Matchlines seem to be designed to enable someone to line up their map book pages and I think this is only simple to do if all strip maps are drawn at the same scale and at the same approximate angle. There is some background to this request worth reviewing that shows Jim has put considerable research into his requirement before posting here.
2d	comment	How can i draw a perpendicular line in a stream segment in a regular interval of 30m? If you are using GIS software can you let us know which product(s) so that we can phrase a suitable answer, please? Most GIS software will have their dynamic segmentation (sometimes known as linear referencing or chainage) capabilities documented.
2d	comment	Can the Open Geo Community Edition be used in a commercial project? Welcome to GIS-SE! At its home page it says that "the OpenGeo Suite Community Edition is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL)" so this should really be a question about what you can do with that license. This is therefore not a GIS specific question.
2d	comment	Converting Points to Lines in ArcGIS AND retaining attributes of both start and end points With Points To Line and ArcPy cursors this looks relatively straightforward but without Python I would not like to tackle it. I don't see any need for ET GeoWizards, GME or Spatial Analyst and it should all be doable with a Basic/ArcView license.
2d	comment	Has anyone used free MangoMap to publish online maps? I've tried it and enjoyed the experience so would recommend giving it a try to see whether it meets your requirements.
2d	comment	Generate files TFW from a text listings Welcome to GIS-SE! I'm having trouble understanding your question. Would you be able to provide more details, please? Are you using any GIS software already?
2d	comment	ArcSDE : Cascading Subtypes in ArcGIS 10/SQL Server I think your "gender" field may be genus or genera. I would refer to this as hierarchical fields.
May 16	comment	How to insert values from one table into another? I agree with @Martin - if we could see some of your (pseudo-)code it would be much easier to fill in the gaps than to write from scratch. If you are new to cursors you may be better to work with arcpy.Search/UpdateCursor before tackling the slightly harder arcpy.da.Search/UpdateCursor syntax.
May 16	comment	ArcGIS for Server or its alternative? I suspect that an OGC GeoServices REST specification may have been more along the lines of what you are after but that looks to be getting a lot of resistance.
May 16	comment	Read Pixel Color of georeferenced image and get LatLng Are you using any GIS software? If not, StackOverflow may be a better fit for this question.
May 16	comment	ArcGIS for Server or its alternative? Have you considered WPS as alternative to GP services?
May 16	comment	ArcGIS for Server or its alternative? When you say "using ArcGIS for desktop as the database", do you mean you are wanting to create map services from a file geodatabase?
May 15	comment	territory analysis How to do it in ArcGIS 10.0 is one question but looking for an algorithm may be best researched/posted separately.
May 15	comment	Match Lines with Data Driven Pages Feel free to email PDF to graeme@polygeo.com.au but let me know if it is OK to use a screen grab from it to add into your question.
May 15	comment	Match Lines with Data Driven Pages Are you able to elaborate on or provide an illustration showing what you mean by "vertical match lines"? I've produced strip maps long before DDP but can't picture what you mean.
May 15	comment	Export ArcGIS 9.3 .lyr symbology styles to QGIS Could you perhaps include links to one or a few of the best GIS-SE posts you found saying how to do this at 10.x?
May 15	comment	territory analysis This sounds more like Network Analyst than Spatial Analyst - do you have that extension licensed and what version of ArcGIS for Desktop are you using?
May 15	comment	How to calculate the bounding box by a given center and scale in Android? I've just added a tag for android - you may be interested in reviewing other questions related to that platform.
May 15	comment	How to calculate the bounding box by a given center and scale in Android? What GIS software and version are you using to try and do this?
