Hi list, At this moment I'm developing some smaller applications based on OpenLayers. Some of the code is worth sharing I think and fortunately this is okay with my customer. For example: I'm working on a more advanced LayerSwitcher control, using jQuery, and something to show the features of a vectorlayer in a table. The things I'm working on are mostly extended or new controls or let's say GUI elements. Since OL's goal is to be more of a library and not an application framework (correct?), I'm wondering what would be the best way to share these GUI elements, since there might be people interested in.
Note: I'm aware of MapFish, which has its strengths of course, but for the cases I'm working on it's too heavy and personally I'm more a fan of jQuery than of ExtJS, especially when you don't need to develop that much heavy functionality :). Anyway, I'm looking for a way to share some OpenLayers-based code, without disturbing the OL library / core. Of course I can put my code on some website and point to that, but I'm looking for a better way to share it, closer to the OpenLayers community so to speak. So is there something like a community page, containing e.g. controls or plugin-like stuff for OpenLayers? I couldn't find anything like that. And should something like a community page be part of the OL-website? Personally I think that would be great, but I can imagine people are not really . Have others come across this? I'm very interested in your opinion! And if I've totally missed something, please let me know :) ! Regards, Thijs PS My apologies for the vague language, I've been on holiday for a while :).
