Extending of gmap or virtualEarth

[hispeedsurfer]

dear richfaces developers,
I have seen a component from java/blueprints using google-maps for jsf https://blueprints.dev.java.net/complib/v2/map-viewer.html

<ui:mapViewer id="mapViewerx" center="#{MapBean.mapPoint}" info="#{MapBean.mapMarker}"
 markers="#{MapBean.locations}" style="height: 500px; width: 700px"/>

Is it possible for me to extend the gmap or virtuelEarth component from richfaces to use markers/pushpins in the same way or not?

it depends what your "extend" means. Google Map API is much and much richer than setting marker and info. So, for me, the right term here is "limitations".
