Beautiful !

I can't wait to see a demo of multiple properties query.

One observation - Trying to view the demo pages with IE6.0 results in an 
error (Cannot connect to page). This is reminiscent of early issues with 
the Google Map and Exhibit formats for Semantic Queries.

I do not know how they were resolved. Maybe Sergey ?

Yes - I know. We should be using a more recent browser (and I am, 
personally - firefox 3.5 is working fine) but I also have to be mindful of 
the fact that IE6 is still used in many places on this side of the firewall 
:) (and probably still out there as well).

Subject: [SMW-devel] Maps and Semantic Maps released 

Hey,

First of all, let me introduce myself.
I'm
Jeroen De Dauw, one of the GSoC students for Wikimedia foundation this
year. During the last 2 months I've been working on 2 new mapping
extensions for MediaWiki and Semantic MediaWiki [0] with Yaron Koren [1] as 
mentor. You can read more about this at my blog [2].

The first version of both extensions has just been released. These are the 
extensions:

Maps
Maps
[3] is an extension that provides the ability to display coordinate
data, using multiple mapping services, including Google Maps [4],
OpenLayers [5] and Yahoo Maps [6], and allows users to geocode addresses.

Semantic Maps
Semantic Maps
[7] is an extension that adds semantic capabilities to the Maps
extension, and therefore provides the ability to add, view and edit
coordinate data stored through the Semantic MediaWiki extension, using
multiple mapping services. These include Google Maps, OpenLayers and
Yahoo Maps. Semantic Maps and Maps are based on Semantic Google Maps
and Semantic Layers, and are meant to replace these extensions. For
this extension to work, you need to have both Semantic MediaWiki and
Maps installed.

You can download both extensions via
 their documentation pages. Suggestions and feature requests are welcome.
