Hi

Yes, I have the database. I am currently reworking how worldwide is  
produced.

Currently, a perlscript produces bitmaps using xplanet out of a  
textfile edited by me. Timeconsuming and not very transparent.

The script also produces kml files and some other formats ( including  
a google map)

One problem are the e-mails in the database, which I do not want  
publish in crawlable format. People did not give permission.

Basically I am not sure where to go with worldwide which is one thing  
I want some input on at the sprint in November. One reason why  
worldwide is in hiatus.

I would like some input here on the list.  Would it be ok to check a  
version of the database into svn even without the permission of the  
people who gave their data so far? ( we never asked for it ) I will  
strip out the e-mail.

I am not sure why there was this confusion about the maintainers since  
my e-mail is down on the page. I will change that to kde-webmaster  
with the "make worldwide work" patch next week.

Greetings

Rainer

I would recommend making email visibility optional, and setting  
previously collected email to invisible. The new public email  
addresses and info could be put in the KML file and a Google map  
displayed.

A page that accepts a query parameter and produces a list of all  
developers near a given area would be nice. It would accept a lat/long  
or a text string and use Google geocoding to convert to lat/long. Then  
I could add a form on Getting Started: Enter your location to find  
other KDE contributors near you.

I am volunteering to do any/all work herein.
