[Wiki Loves Monuments] Web application for the Swiss contest

I have been recently (today!) working on the API explained at the tools page
(http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2011/Tools).
I hope to have it ready soon. I'm trying to make it as exportable as
possible, with many formats: HTML, XML, KML, JSON... That way we won't
reinvent the wheel and tooling would be international. The applications for
WLM CH and WLM FR or whatever could be shared, thus making it more
effective.

Plus, as said before, it could be great if a framework to show the list
could be done and be common to all websites. Maybe exporting to a specific
HTML and then applying some JavaScript magic?
