Hello All,
Some good news to report. I did get in touch with the developer of the map
program we used. The short version is the service is gone for good. The
possible good news is his program was an overlay based on a Google Map API. If
you don't what that means, the good news is I do. The bad news is I need to
roll my own version which may or may not be easy. I did get him to release the
data that was stored so I have all of the members information that did post
their location. On the bad news side, there might be a fee to pay Google, but
I don't think it will apply to our low use. I'm still holding out hopes that
there is a map application already out there.

Tim,
I agree with Bill. Thanks to the map, I know there are a couple LOM owners
within about 100 miles of me (I'm in northern Virginia, USA about 30 minutes
south od Washington, DC.) I think the closest owner is in Culpeper, VA.
I'll keep my eyes out for an app that would be a suitable replacement.

Well,
It looks like the map feature us unofficially dead. I cannot get a hold of
the developer. His email does not bounce, but he has not replied to my
inquiries. There is no way at this time to recover the data. I will look for
a replacement service or code to generate our own map that is in our control.
If anyone knows of an online service, please let me know,
-Tim
