Cartography

[Brylie Oxley]

Hi all,
I am studying Free/Open Source software for cartography and geographic 
information systems. I am documenting the tools that I find at 
http://libregeo.org

I have been unable to find a robust tool that would perform advanced 
cartographic functions. As such, I am looking to the KDE developer 
community to find suggestions how I could merge data from tools such as 
Quantum GIS (http://qgis.org) with the vector illustration capabilities 
from Calligra.

What are some considerations and steps that I can take to bridge 
functionality in this much needed area?
