Hi all I have had a look at the trac for this cited on the dev mailing list, and am not sure if this is the appropriate place for this suggestion, but here goes.
Linda Rawson suggested to include plugin development for openlayers as part of te summer of code. I was reminded of this when I saw the post by Jachym Cepicky about his customised layerswitcher. In many cases as users, we would like to use the most stable release eg 2.5, but sometimes need/want to use enhancements such as this layerswitcher, or a scalebar etc. Currently the only way is to download from trunk etc and essentially create your own custom version of openlayers. I forsee this being a problem when future release are released. I would like to see the development of a core base with the ability to "plugin" these great enhancements. As it stands I would already plugin the scalebar and the enhanced popups. I have resisted trying to create my own custom version in fear of breaking something. Of course, I may be way of mark here, and those in sweatshop may offer a slight from! I have not added to the trac for this exact reason, but I look forward to comments Keep up the work on a great product Andrew -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Google-Summer-of-Code-2008-tp15628025p15998646.html Sent from the OpenLayers Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users
