 * Google is changing its api, preventing the kml files loaded externally. Do you
   plan to update this Plugin to work with the Card or Dataset-IDs provided within
   Google Api?

 * G’day loopy37,
 * Thanks for letting me know about this change, I’ll need to do some research as
   it looks like the answer for migrating off KML to another Google Maps solution
   is complex (different methods depending on what each map is doing), whereas Openmaps
   still supports KML maps. Not going to be able to look at it this week though.
 * cheers,
   Ross
