This list is an absolute gem in finding what are the trending state-of-the-art open source programs. I have found so many cool open source projects I feel addicted to browsing more..

Agree with you completely, but the explanation is probably in order.

CoMaps is a fairly recent fork of Organic Maps. There were questions being raised about Organic's governance - dodgy partnerships, misuse of funds, not being truly open-source due to keeping core libraries private - and so CoMaps was created to 'do it properly'. The app functionality is basically exactly the same, so moving over is completely painless.
