Map browser on kenai
I ripped the little demo map browser component out of my Oracle OpenWorld slides and moved it to kenai as a new project called
OSMBrowser. Not very polished, more of a starting point for someone
motivated to play :-)
Thanks to the crew at the Open Street Map project for a nice database and tile server. A Thing of Beauty.
Update: I fixed the busted .jnlp file, so it can be run.

All I get when I click run is:

Doesn't Sun already have a Map Browser component inside the swingx project?

Why you published broken example?
See working JavaFX map applet
http://www.javafx.me/crudfx/examples/WalkMap.html
it works, it uses Google Maps API, it is JavaFX
