OSM Software Meta

There is a non-obvious relationship of big engines like Mapnik, and the rest of Openstreetmap activity. While building OSGeo-Live v10, I am trying to make sense of “the whole of openstreetmap software” — to make a map of it, so to speak.. but a map of logical groupings, by purpose, and weighted by popularity and utility. Server-side to client-side is represented as one spectrum, right to left.. and then separate activity classes, like the difference between data pipelines for maintenance, rendering, and more recently, analysis.. then the nouns of the actual software projects, some of which are quite large, like Mapnik.
