From users point of view it would make sense to have only limited functionalities. What are we doing with ME devices like PocketPCs or simliar with a mobile GIS (not so much)?
I think we can list the main features as:
- just  log GPS signal (so a self explaning GPS plugin is recommend)
- mapping in the field (draw some points and/or polygons and give them some attributes)
- navigate to specific locations (from mappings done before)
- maps or raster images (e.g. MrSid format or georeferenced JPEG) as background layers

I am dreaming from a MobileJUMP and deinstall ArcPad from my PocketPC.

Kindly regards
Arnd

Porting OpenJump to Java ME would definitely be cool and difficult. OpenJump currently requires too many resources to fit within the constraints of Java ME devices. It might be possible to make a stripped down version similar to ArcPad with limited editing and support for only shapefiles and GML. I think ME provides Swing and Java2D so most of the code should work. I played around with ME a few years ago and managed to get a java app running on my Motorola phone. Given the limited screen area of such devices, the layer name panel would have to be replaced with a fly-out pallet. Come to think of it, that wouldn't be a bad idea anyway.

    Hei Hisaji,

    a very good question.
    We don't have any real development plan and currently the JPP and with
    it OpenJUMP is an organization independent of any commercial
    constraints
    and goals.

    every contribution is more or less volunteered. I guess this is
    unique
    among the OS GIS and I don't know if this is good or bad.

    time will tell. But i clearly see an advantage in JUMPs straight
    forward
    plugin concept to add functionality.
    I hope this year we will still see 1.3 release (switching from 1.2
    D to
    1.3). And maybe a switch or inclusion of GDBS and imageJ (from
    Erwans team).

    stefan

    note: other thoughts are welcome :)
