Definitely. Customization would also be important, since I imagine that users would like to avoid storing a bunch of data they're not going to use in their project. (Depends on how things are implemented, though.) If your project only dealt with a single city, it might make things easier to set up if you knew the storage or computation requirements were less onerous than dealing with the entire world. -- Michael _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
