We should think about which applications will be shipped with
Mapbender 2.7. Here are my suggestions, please feel free to comment,
I would like to know your opinions.
First of all, i would like to deprecate gui2, as it was initially
intended to be a visually attractive application, but it never lived
up to that. I see no additional value in gui2.

we should move functionality that is not part in other guis to gui1
(resizeMapsize)
We should get the applications gui, gui1, gui_digitize
Themeroller-ready before releasing 2.7. We should also remove
redundant modules from these applications to make them stand out a
little more (like removing all non-WFS stuff from gui_digitize).
Ideally, someone would check the WMS containers and update them.

we could take the monitor-Skript to do this
I would like to have the following new applications
* A very basic application with just a map (when creating your own
app, you could build on top of this)
+1
* An application containing jQuery UI modules, like the demo at
telascience (could replace "gui" in the long run)
+1
* An OpenLayers application, like the demo at telascience
+1
* A new admin interface, like the one kmq built in GSoC 09. Should be
functional, but possibly with few features. Would be perfect if it
covered the most used dialogs (like load wms, edit gui wms, edit gui
elements) and you could actually work with it.

Maybe it makes sense to offer two admin :
1. one for beginners
2. one for extended user (Mapbender-admins)
The second group (administrators) want to configure WMS, WFS and USER
and GROUPs) so they need an admin application that provides all the
functionality
* A new interface where you can add yourself to the Mapbender user
map (The old app at mapbender.org should be replaced by this one).
+1
* An application with an OpenStreetMap-WMS, new print module, and a
MeetingPoint module that returns a permalink and optionally twitters
your meeting point text as a geotagged tweet (spsneo and I are
working on this module).
+1
These new applications should not have a lot of overlapping
functionality, they should be very tiny. Mapbender is a tool for
building applications, so we should show that it's easy to create
apps that have a distinct look, and are not just minor variations of
gui.
+1
The new apps could also serve as demos, maybe for mapbender.org. The
advantage would be that these demos would be maintained if they were
included in the release. If we no longer wanted a demo, we would just
remove it in a future release.
good idea
Creating these apps could be a goal for the next dev sprint. This
process could give users and devs an opportunity for dialogue, which
could improve Mapbender in general.
+1 yes - good idea.

Hi Christoph,
+1 for your ideas.
Seems to be a very good goal for the dev sprint.
Greetings
Verena
Christoph - thanks for the discussion on the applications. It is a good
topic for the developer sprint.
Best regards
Astrid
