Hi developers, I have started working on the map application with some of the work done. So I wanted to get an update across to have a review of how I am doing so far. The source files for the project are available at: https://github.com/9inpachi/application-map I have been and in future intend to document the daily progress of the development. The progress is available at PROGRESS.md <https://github.com/9inpachi/application-map/blob/master/PROGRESS.md> within the repository,
The design proposal for the project is available at https://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/MapApplication. And I would like to request a repository on xwiki-contrib.
