> However, I just had to notice that it earthamap doesn't work at all. Earthmap changed. Gpsmap caches maps, so the code is still useful if you have cached maps (mine are 3 years old). There is no benefit from earthmap in the context of this port.
New map sources will be plugins in newcore. That said, neither the bsd or radiotap plugins work so mapping is a distant priority. All the map sources in 2005-08-R1 used to work great, but good maps are not free and things were "fixed" so we could no longer leech good maps.
