Hi Andrea, Jody, I'm back to doing a little work on the unsupported mappane module. Your discussion of working towards a clean build for demos etc. makes me wonder if mappane should be a module at all, or would be better placed in demo itself. After all, on the user list and guide it's consistently described as an example for users to study or take as a starting point, rather than being a fully-fledged GeoTools component. This implies that there will never be an effort to promote it to the status of a supported module. That's perfectly fine but I can't see the point in letting mappane languish in the unsupported bin indefinitely because it gives users the impression that it is intended, at some stage, to be more than a working example.
I'm presently hacking some very simple "map widget" code using JMapPane to help collect my thoughts for the FOSS4G tutorial that Jody is planning. I suggest that this, or something based on it, could be bundled with the present mappane module contents as a demo module, and mappane be removed from unsupported. What do you think ?
