The one thing that holds us back from using Open Layers is that it 
doesn't use SVG or Canvas syntax for vector drawing - the last thing we 
want to use is another set of drawing commands.   I realize this was 
done originally for the whole SVG/VML thing but now with iecanvas or 
svgweb who gives a crap about VML (many of us don't even give a crap if 
it runs in IE if they want to continue being non conformant (or 
excluding Canvas to be "conformant").   btw we're doing our drawing with 
Canvas (we like SVG but Gecko's implementation is not that great: slow 
and no inline <svg> tag without xml file type)
