Yes, i have seen this game some weeks ago.
I was first pleasantly suprised.
Then really disappointed... because he doesn't mention Colonial Conquest at all, and he makes money with it. This is not my state of mind.
He could at least give some credits...
Anyway, it still seems fun, but i don't have an iphone/ipad to test it.

Yes.
Imho, the best way to share custom maps without spending too much time will be to post them on the forum.
I will add a subforum to the colonial conquest forum. I will add a link from the CoCoNet webpage and maybe some screenshots too.
FYI, owning the map is not mandatory to join a game created with a custom map. Each player will download it automatically.
After the release, I will try to write a small manual for the editor and some explanation about the map format (xml, pictures...).
