New to ModestMaps and need to know about its capabilities
I recently started project with OpenLayers (www.openlayers.org) and find that Modest Maps can be as great as OpenLayers, so i need to know what Layer kind Modest Maps support? do it support WMS/WFS layer via provider like UMN Mapserver, Mapguide, GeoServer?
And how easy to create simple mapping application (zoom & pan)? Are there any application gallery/showcase for Modest Maps?
Thanks,
Dels

Inappropriate?Hi Dels,
There are a few examples on the Modest Maps home page, here:
http://modestmaps.com/example.html
http://modestmaps.com/tutorial-actran...
Those are basic technology examples. The library has also been used in numerous public projects like these:

http://snapshot.trulia.com/

You'll see the xoom & pan behavior you're talking about there.
WMS/WFS layer support is not core to the mission of the project, though the library has been adapted to do so by GeoCommons, code that may yet make it into Modest Maps' sample code section:

Is ModestMap now supporting WMS/WFS?
Thanks,
