I am your student now, I learnt a lot from you about web2py, actually I am a researcher at one of the labs in east cost, and a part time teacher -- I love computing science. I my vision for the mapping is to create (draw) a polygon that signifies a room in a building using a mouse, when somebody with a sensor is in the room, it will show the location of the person. The senor location can be determined using triagulation. This will attract the emerging sensor technology techies to web2py. There are so many applications for this particular idea. web2py is a good candidate since it has all the necessary components : MVC. Imagine you are in a museum, with a hand held instrument with a sensor attached to it, you are infront of Michaelanglo's piece of work, you press the curator button on the handheld instrument, bingo it starts talking about the piece for you alone. What do you think about this idea?
