Do you know if there is any effort by Google to either interface Google's Sky Viewer with the SETI@home-MapView freeware found here http://www.bjoernhenke.de/frame.htm?/smv/index.en.htm and developed by Björn Henke in Germany. Or do you know of any plans to develop an inhouse version that will take data processed by the SETI software on your computer and accomplish a similar viewer.

It would be really good to be able to overlay signals processed by each SETI member's system on Google's Sky Map as a point location in the sky.

Finally is there anyway that Google could add a switch in layers to display extrasolar planets in the sky view.

I'm sorry but I have don't have access to plans concerning potential changes. You might post your question in the Sky forum and see if you get an answer. People who helped develop Sky would be likely to see your question there. Though they may not be able to disclose future plans, your request may be considered.
