Hi In XAPI [1] what is the difference * between a [bbox=...] and ?bbox=... * and between a 'map' and a '*' request ? and if the represent equal requests, which one is preferred?
These examples return identical results: * 'map' request with bbox as URL parameter: http://jxapi.openstreetmap.org/xapi/api/0.6/map?bbox=34.679,32.039,34.721,32.08 * 'all' ('*') request with bbox as 'predicate': http://jxapi.openstreetmap.org/xapi/api/0.6/*[bbox=34.679,32.039,34.721,32.081] This seems redundant and reading the XAPI [1] wiki page I don't really see any clear distinction. If yes, I would suggest to deprecate the 'map' and the '?bbox=...' parameters. Yours, S.
