Hi
I'm unsure why go on about anyone being "thrown out".
I'm unsure why doing it inconsistently in the past in 'legacy' code is
any reason for not trying to sort it out for the future.

Hi,
Is there /really/ any need for *six* coordinate formats? It's hard
enough to learn a new process without basics like this tripping you up.
There is nobody who is trusted enough to set an universal standard:

Basically, there is an ISO standard

Yes I think it started on talk and has popped up here quite late on in the

Apologies Dan
Someone replied direct to me, I then typed wrong address when replying
to the list. As you probably worked out, the previous posts are in OSM-Talk

Not to mention [longitude, latitude] vs [latitude, longitude] issue.
I'm working on a web app using Leaflet library and had spent hours
debugging my own code trying to figure out why data points didn't show up
or showed up in the wrong continent. As it turned out Leaflet expects [x,
y]
On the left side, go figure! Or is that the right side?

Hi
Did I miss some emails, or did someone redirect this thread to a
different mailing list half-way through? I don't see what the latter
would be for, in this case, so I'm wondering if I'm losing emails...!

+1, there are even countries driving on the other side of the road than most of
the others, willingly paying an extra for having
Looks like I fell fowl of another annoying 'standard' ... just how
replies to an email list are handled! If only people would use the same
standard everywhere ;)

Totally agree

Not worked
It's to provide the numerous coordinates format for each of the
programs. Select a boundary box (Alt+LButton mouse drag) & you get:

I can't understand the need for the variations in syntax

Oh, agree OSM isn't unique, but considering it's a geocoded project,
it's just embarrassing that coordinates can't be coordinated.
