[OpenLayers-Dev] Addins Candidate: LoadingPanel

[Bart van den Eijnden (OSGIS)]

Chris,

I agree this is more of an addin than it is OL core material. The events
need to be in OL core, but the control can live in addins.

It does raise a question for me as can we define this border between OL and
addins in such a way that it will be evident where things should live?

For instance, what about the measure control and the navigation history
control, are they core or addin?

Best regards,
Bart
