As far as gedcom 6 goes, It's been around for ever and nothing has

I'm working on an open source project in which I want to make updating
the application very easy. For instance Firefox automatically updates
itself when there is an update. MLS from the church does the same

For this application, as was stated, it's probably not vital to know
the exact latitude, longitude, since distance in pages in the census
should be good enough. Because of the way the census is taken, two
families on the same page or on consecutive pages and in the same
township are close together
In the CSV export from MLS, there is also a unique identifier created
by MLS for both the family and for the individuals. I used this as my
key in my Emergency Preparedness Program. Does anyone know how stable
these columns are? I use it to tell if someone is new to the ward

I finally released a new version of my Emergency Preparedness Software which
supports maps.

It imports data from MLS and will allow the user to store information about
ward members which may be useful in an emergency. You can see where
everyone lives on the map.
