Thanks for the test mpd and for explaining the conventions you're using. I hope we can convince Joshua to clarify the spec but if we don't, at least our apps will be consistent.

I also tried following what the spec suggests but I don't think the value of v can be calculated that way. This is what I used, it's probably similar to what you mean by longitude and latitude:

Code:
lcVector3 VertexDir = Position - Center;
            
float DotPlane1 = lcDot(lcVector4(Position, 1.0f), Plane1);
lcVector3 PointInPlane1 = Position - lcVector3(Plane1) * DotPlane1;
float DotFrontPlane = lcDot(lcVector4(PointInPlane1, 1.0f), FrontPlane);
float DotPlane2 = lcDot(lcVector4(PointInPlane1, 1.0f), Plane2);

float Angle1 = atan2f(DotPlane2, DotFrontPlane) / LC_PI * TextureMap->Angle1;
TexCoord.x = 0.5f + 0.5f * Angle1;

float Angle2 = asinf(DotPlane1 / lcLength(VertexDir)) / LC_PI * TextureMap->Angle2;
TexCoord.y = 0.5f - Angle2;

Basically I project the vertex into p1 and get the atan of that point for u, and then for v it's the angle of the triangle where the opposite side is the distance to plane 1 and the hypotenuse is the distance to the center. 

This approach works well except at the north/south poles and at the back where the 2 sides of the projection meet (u jumps from 0 to 1). I only have the vertex positions when I calculate the UVs, I need to change how I do things so that I have triangles instead of points and then these problems will be trivial to fix. Did you run into similar problems?
