abhay, i too have a number of functionality and feature pre-visualizations that address the gui from a finished, end-user point of view.  if you want to get a wiki page started regarding this, then i'd contribute the mock-ups and work-flows that would be associated with such a plug-in... and would be happy to modify them along the way as suggested features are proven undoable or not practical.

regards,

eric

@Stefan,  SkyJUMP has only implemented KML write, although read should be fairly easy to add.  We use WGS84 UTM exclusively, so the (limited) reprojection support was easy to implement.  This is the reason that there will (IMIHO) always be a niche for specialized JUMP variants like SkyJUMP that can provide powerful (although less general) features by knowing the exact needs of their user base.

@Nacho, I have an experimental Google Maps plugin, but stopped work on it due to the licensing issues that Paul pointed out.  It is a lot of fun, though.

@Abhay,  using OpenLayers would not change the license for the map data.  It would still need to be hosted on a web page.

Larry

ok.. let me note another problem [which includes the nice kml proposal
as well]:

We don't have a implementation of projections. So everything that relies
on that is not doable before we get this implemented

Stefan

PS: @Larry, did you also implement KML write or only read for SkyJUMP?
