Thinking about slow internet links (mobile devices, rural areas, etc) I was wondering whether the map extension should work like some youtube-links on many blogs: - Load a static map image and a tiny bit of Javascript - If the map image is clicked, load the Openlayers Javascript and make the map slippy This can be implemented easily for maps without KML overlays. This static image could also be used for static dumps without much effort. Regards, jens
