That was my idea too. But it seems that we can plan to finish actual  
API history with a ka-map version 1.0 just to publish all effort we  
did in the last year.
Than I'm more and more convinced that version 2 should be the  
integration with OpenLayer and why not with other communities.
Maybe we'll have to change the name if we try to enter osgeo  
incubation so it would be nice to leave "all ka-map fans" with at  
least a version 1.0
think to person who bought t-shirts and mugs (at cafepress are  
already cutting prices for the unclear future of ka-map!)
  ;-)

If you don't know what to do this week, there's documentation to be  
done... or maybe you want to put your hands on the spaghetti code  
we've posted lately.

Monday I can't. Tuesday? same hour?
(1300 GMT aka 0900 EDT aka 1500 CET)

Anyway we're not so many and we can reach the same result using the  
list (I'm not sure...).
