Also i made a trendy framework, which is talked about here:
http://map.wirelesslondon.info/docs/nodel.html
which is being used to make a description system for the Oktoberfest, 
and also offer access to it through the location portal. 
The first application built with it is still work-in-progress; the
next one is a quick rewrite of the nodedb/map/portal server.

I will be there with bells on, as will Saul be, to the utmost of capacity.

We are getting a Free Map System in an agreement with the people at
http://crit.org.in which gives us perhaps 2 months of time from
http://flipdesign.in/ to help with UI design and construction, for
both the map service and the location portal interface. 
I want to publically develop a spec/schematic for them, wiki-style
whenever the system is set up (next week, maybe?) that i hope Wsfii
deliberations can meaningfully feed into.
