I wonder how does work on 'multi-site patch' go?
Have you got any time to work on it?
Do you need any help?

I started working on the patch but could use some assistance on the visual side of things. On the back-end it's pretty simple - a "Location" object represents a place (room/floor/building/etc.) and Locations are linked together via a parent/child relationship. But what should the user interface look like? There are several possibilities:

- A textual tree, like tags
- A series of image-maps, using images that the user uploads. Specified areas link to other image-maps
- Google maps integration

My plan was to start with a basic tree and improve/replace that later based on user feedback.
