ok great, this sounds like something I can help with!

ditorelo commented 11 years ago

I have nightmares thinking that we're using Google Geocode API without necessarily using a Google Map to display the result (which is against the Geocode API terms of use).

Would this help me sleep soundly?

h4ck3rm1k3 commented 11 years ago

I think this is important, I still have not found time to work on it.

ditorelo commented 11 years ago

I'm having a crack at this.

rjmackay commented 11 years ago

OK - if possible it'd be good to make it a config option to select which geocoder you use. Doesn't need UI, but just an option in application/config/...
