I would go outside JOSM, and make this a webapp that can be included as a layer in any editor. WMS like. But please keep in mind that SIFT will *not* work for the typical streetsign because SIFT looks for features, which are typically not present in the 'easy to understand' signs (because they use colours). > - Would anybody be interested in mentoring this interesting project? > Preferably someone with SIFT-experience, but I would be happy to work > with anyone who's enthusiastic about this project. Stefan or Matt maybe? :) You can add me to the list of volunteers ;) Stefan _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
