[Papervision3D] bitmap.draw with google maps

[Andy Zupko]

Welcome to flash security!  The only way you can get around it is to  
host your own tiled images since i'm pretty sure google maps doesn't  
have a crossdomain allowing you access to draw.  If you do that you  
will need to use a 3rd party mapping API since i'm also pretty sure  
google maps doesn't support custom tiles...  the only one i have  
personally worked with is UMap: http://www.afcomponents.com/components/umap_as3/

hope that helps.
