[mapguide-internals] new projection in csmap

[Jason Birch]

Yes... assuming that all of your existing data sources have coordinate systems defined, and that CS-Map is able to project between them and the popular vis CS.

That's how the enterprise.mapguide.com example is doing it.  Their source data is the standard Sheboygan data in LL84.

I tried getting a Google Maps layer to work by adding it to an ApplicationDefinition based on the info in the Mike's blog:

http://research.dmsolutions.ca/?p=314

But wasn't able to get both the MapGuide and Google Maps layers to initialize when part of the same map.  I actually prefer the MGE demo implementation because it also includes a Google layer-type switcher.  I could see extending this switcher to allow me to choose between Google layers and also MapGuide HTTP tile layers on all of my maps.

That works.  Should it work if I do that on a MapDefinition (will it  
convert all the layer definitions on the fly)?
