If you examine the video closely, it looks like it's a Mac appli= cation,
the author is David Griffiths and the application *might* be iMapMinder
(also available on Windows, but not on Linux - non-free both in the
freedom and beer sense). All of this is pure guesswork on my part
and might very well be completely wrong.

If David Griffiths is indeed the author, I don't remember seeing him on=
the ML.=C2=A0 You'll have to find another way to contact him. The org f= ile
shows an email address of

=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 dgriffiths AT fas.harvard.edu

but that might not be valid any longer (the video was posted in 2011).
