History of GmapPackage

GmapPackage
A Wikid Google Map Engine
The goal of this project is to create a package that lets you edit a Google Map like a wiki, with some Flickr integration thrown in for spice.
A Road Map for the package is well underway. You can find part of it below and part of it on this wiki page I'm beginning to move things over here as they become more clarified.
If you want to join in I'm not a professional programmer, but have faith, this is going to be sweet. If you do want to help out, well I guess you can email me wjames5 -at - nyc.rr.com or find me on the bitweaver irc thing.

Puzzles
Sets
This needs to be a lot like categories. Markers and Polys need to be grouped, or added to sets, but it would make sense to be able to add them to multiple sets. Probably need a new table for this. Should the sets be nested. Could the Categories module be duplicated as is to serve as a set manager? Does it need any modification?RoadMap
