OpenGuides 0.45 has now been released, and now supports geolocation
worldwide. It is available from your favourite CPAN mirror, or

Changelog:
Made the geolocation stuff work worldwide. Squeeeeeee!
You can now choose between doing your distance calculations with
the British National Grid, the Irish National Grid, or a UTM
ellipsoid. If you wish to use anything other than the British
National Grid and you have pre-existing location data then you
will need to save an edit of each node with location data before
distance searches will work.
In less exciting news:
Fixed bug relating to lat/long representation.
Removed debugging warn accidentally left in last release.
Fixed some HTML validation errors.
Debian packages are also available from the usual place.
Dominic.

I'll be there.
Dom.
I'd like to organise an OpenGuides BOF at the London Perl Workshop
if there is sufficient interest.
A BOF is a Birds-of-a-feather gathering, usually a special interest
caucus at a larger conference. It does not need to appear in the
official timetable for the main event.
