I do not want to stop anyone working on maps, but:
The maps produced with this tool will be hard to translate into other
languages. We have an abundance of English language material
(including
maps).
What we need is material which can be taken by an interpreter and
re-issued in other languages.
The solution for this are SVG maps where the text can get extracted
and
replaced.
Yes, SVG map is better because it can manipulated using standard DOM
call.
However, the drawback for svg is viewer is viewer support. For Java
app eg: BibleDesktop/Alkitab there is a good SVG library from Apache.
I am not sure for the C/C++ part, maybe using activeX control from
Adobe SVG Viewer (now unsupported)
Doesn't WebKit display SVGs?
QT or Gnome I think also have WebKit bindings.
