GeoJSON requests have been few and far between for us, but I checked in the aforementioned GeoJSON writer last night after requests for review and help fell flat. Please check it out soon since it's likely to debut in 1.5.4 soon (like, this weekend) unless we get some meaningful feedback. Source patches and comments welcome. S&T is actually the more troublesome side of that equation: MS abandonded the product a few years back and I think they'd changed their file formats in a few ways that broke our reader before - you should lean on their GPX export capabilities to liberate your date.
