Hi Wim / Tim / World, thanks for the positive feedback.
What is your recommendation concerning the license? should i go and dual license LGPL and EPL or is that just causing confusion and issues? I want to contribute, so i want to use whatever works best in the Eclipse-world. Single EPL or about anything else is fine to me as well. I will adapt the source code to fit into the Nebula structure and layout, which is just fine of course. Also I will maintain an initial version, FAQ and more complete javadocs. I am just really ready to tackle issues like reverse geo-coding, layering etc, which are related but not necessarily a good choice if you want to contribute a simple map-widget, rather than a full blown map-kit. I will address such common questions a short FAQ though. Waiting on a recommendation about licensing now (dual vs. single or others).
