+>>>> A wiki link to a map page will show the whole map zoomed out I presume so that won't be helful when I have pois across the globe and you want to know which side of a building the photo is taken from :( Merging maps would be a very good feature! If it could be done with a pagespec type thing it would be awesome. For my use case I could then have a map at each building page showing the locations of all the photos under that page. The map file would be reasonably small. If these maps could then be merged via a directive with globbing of some sort into a mega-map that would be a very flexibly solution that automatically updates when I add new maps (buildings). I just need to use my non-existent programming skills to force my hack plugins into automatically creating per album maps.  -[[users/kjs]]
