KML support in Virtual Earth coming soon?

Reading Time: < 1 minute

According to a post on geothought, Microsoft’s Virtual Earth will be supporting KML in September or October of this year.

The implications of this are huge, but it appears there isn’t a solid source on it yet.  The author (Peter Batty) heard it in a “vendor spotlight” presentation at the GeoWeb conference in Vancouver, but no other reporting on this has emerged yet.

If you’ve seen anything else to support this claim, please leave a comment and let us know.
