Me, I've gone Postel ...
[Actually, that comment is semi-serious. I'm looking at reprojecting
world map data into azimuthal equidistant projection (aka Postel)
centred on my home location. Why? I'm a radio ham, and azimuthal
equidistant is the most useful for plotting propagation maps. Long
distance radio conditions have been stellar of late; I've been able to
talk to South Africa, Réunion, the Cook Islands and the Sakhalins with a
small transmitter and a simple antenna.]
