I think the rules ( http://geoimages.berkeley.edu/wwp/practical/
Rules.html)
are simple and not a problem to make great panos for the wwp-events.

Please keep it simple, and mostly compatible to all internet-users.
With QT we have a "standard" wich is avaiable for Windows and Mac.
So nothing more is needed!
