With the creation of the raster service (see hexagram30/raster#4, etc.), the map service will be divesting of many of its current responsibilities. Lots of questions will arise as part of this, such as:
- What should map focus on?
- How useful will it be as a consumer of the raster service?
- Will it simply be a collection of raster service queries?
- Will it offer some sort of tracking capabilities for players, npc, etc.?
- Will it offer player-level location-based caching?
