Googlemaps Plus

This is a highly modified version of a pre-existing module offered up by barneson over at Drupal. Its intended purpose is to allow users to create Google maps out of RSS data feeds. With the aid of an included super-charged proxy (which can be turned on and off via Drupal admin settings), users can also create Google maps using REST data feeds as well. The combined effect allows users to mash together data such as traffic feeds from yahoo along with Drupal blog posts (when locative data is present). Additional fixes have been provided to make this module more flexible and less prone to throwing errors. Please note that this module is just for presenting the final map, not for adding locative data to individual Drupal nodes (this requires a hotspot.module or location.module).

Book Plus

This module builds on the concepts of the original book.module but integrates a more user-friendly parenting interface as well as the ability to assign weighting capabilities to non-administrator users. Those with javascript enabled and permission to create and/or edit book pages will see a new split dropdown scenario with top-level books listed above and member book pages below. This allows users to focus on the book at hand without having to scroll through all pages from all books before finding the correct placement for their page. Those without javascript will see the original parenting dropdown on book page add and edit screens. In addition, a new access control permission is introduced to allow selected users or user groups the ability to see the weights of existing documents through the parenting interface as well as set the weight of the current document. For administrators, book plus also offers the capability of universally controlling the depth of the tables of contents (show one level below current, show two levels, etc.) via administer->settings - now with javascript interactivity!
