And this is exactly my point : I am using the API in Merkaartor probably just as much as JOSM. Sure, it has no way near the impact of JOSM or potlatch. But really, would a few mails on dev@ hurt really that much to help api writers who are not 'major'? In fact, if OSM as a project is interested in attracting novel ways of interacting with the API (still the goal, yes?) it should focus on making the project accessible for the _minor_ coders rather than for the established coders who are less likely to do groundbreaking stuff. As a practical sidenote : am I the only has problems with keeping track of wiki-only announcements? > The major progress this weekend was finally getting the node tags into > a seperate table (no more whacked escaping rules) and enabling of > transactions (no more partial updates).

Good, can't wait to read about it on dev@ or opengeodata.org/feed. cu bart _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dev
