This demo incorporates the following:

• Script registering and push/pop methods from Derek Fowler
  (see http://dfowler.geeksbox.co.uk/demos/mapstraction and http://dfowler.geeksbox.co.uk/demos/mapstraction/checkLoaded.htm)
• All functionality under the 'mxn' namespace
• Main library uses the YUI namespace pattern
• Scripts act as modules extending the base functions following the jQuery pattern where '$' is used as an internal reference to the namespace
• Extensions to the mapstraction namespace can be writen by including another js file with (function($){})(mxn) (no on-demand loading)
• Modules can be written in a similar way but require a function stub in the main library and a register call at the bottom to enable on-demand loading (see mapstraction.core.js for an example)
• Lightweight base library loads module scripts on-demand from the same directory as mapstraction as they are required keeping the script footprint as small as possible

Missing functionality:

• IsLoaded checking on the main mapstraction library
• Check whether function firing order will be an issue
• Decide whether to use 'register' callback or 'onscriptload' event to fire outstanding function invoking
