Plugin for QGIS that saves out SLD. Useful for simple choropleth maps with GeoServer. Implements solely renderers and styling options. Later on I thought about a tighter integration with GeoServer than to save first a SLD file and then upload or copy-and-paste to GeoServer. Using GeoServer's REST API the SLD preview dialog features now the possibility to upload the style directly to GeoServer.

Only supports graduated renderers. Everything is output as a line-color style, not sure if it works with polygon layers
Will export Mapnik XML compatibile with whichever Mapnik version you currently have installed.
- Arc2Earth - Can export layer styles in OGC SLD Format, can adapt by hand to Cascadenik or Carto. Don't know of a method in ArcPy to get layer graphic properties without going full on ArcObjects, nudge nudge.
- Nothing available, yet. However, when Mapnik XML -> Carto is in place (pending updates to carto-generator), then you will be able to go Cascadenik -> Mapnik XML -> Carto
- You can use a command line tool which will be installed with Mapnik >= 2.0.0 called
