This is an existing lug.org.uk project, which a student is trying to
finish 
before going back to University.

It is a mapping project, where users can enter their grid ref, and they
then 
appear on the map.  Proposed categories include home users, schools, 
companies using linux, companies offering linux support, training etc
etc, 
and the map can be viewed with various filters.

I am not sure exactly what functionality will be offered yet, as it
depends on 
his time initially, and then the help of others to expand the idea.

I am the contact for this project, and I will post more details when I
have 
them.  It is PHP/mySQL, and is derived from a site done for the 2002
Install 
Day.

Is this of interest?
