[TYPO3-english] Google maps extension with categorisation

I have made an extension which might be what you are looking for.
The extension is not uploaded to TER yet, as the documentation is 
lacking - and there are a few rough edges in the backend modules.
If you are interested, you can download the extension in it's current 
form here:

http://salema4u.com/T3X_lb_googlemap-0_0_0-z-201004041255.t3x

It requires TYPO3 4.3, and in order to get it to display anything, you 
should include the static typoscript template bundled with the plugin.

In the left menu, you can select a map starting point, so when you need 
to create new POIs, the map will always center on this point.

To create a category:
  - Go to a sysfolder and create a POI category record
  - As the plugin currently doesn't have any default markers, you should 
upload an icon for the category

To create a POI:
  - Go to a sysfolder and create a tt_address record
  - Select which POI category it is associated to and use the map wizard 
in order to select it's coordinates

To display the map:
  - Select the map plugin, and select which categories which should be 
displayed and select a map center, using the map wizard

Feedback is always welcome, and I hope that you find the extension usable :)
