Working on OpenLayers 3.x
Hi all,
After a couple of quiet months, I would like to start working actively again with Openlayers.
My goals are:
- Provide a new release with brand new basecode
- Use the Openlayers library version 3.x
- Maintain the module Openlayers 2.x minimally
Things to be done in OL 3.x

Best practice for geolocation: addressfield + geofield + geocoder vs text + geofield + geocoder
I am asking for input on the the best practice for having a user enter a location and then having the system geocode that location.
Addressfield + geofield + geocoder
Pros:
Addressfield allows one to enter in each part the location if they know it
It allows a developer to access each piece of the address easily
Integrates with alot of other Drupal modules
Cons:
You cannot have a piece of the address by required and the others not.
For example, I hardly ever know what the zip code of a venue or location is yet if addressfield is required, I have to enter it.
Mapping from GPX file
I'm putting together a personal site to keep track of local trails; I want to render a map from an uploaded GPX file, no problem so far using FileField, Geocoder and Leaflet. To make it a bit more interesting I would like to add a little more information such as a table or list with Distance, Vertical Climb, Vertical Drop, Grade (average), Grade (max), Altitude (min), Altitude (max) and a chart plotting vertical over distance.
