Sorry to bother you, but I've written something again, and I'd like for everyone to use it :) http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Plugins/GeoChat It is a plugin for JOSM that allows users mapping in a same area to talk to each other. At the least it should render a chat window in MapCraft obsolete: users at online mapping parties would be able to interact inside the map editor. Also it could lessen a chance of mapping conflicts, because users' location can be shown in a map window. And the great thing is, you won't even need to keep the panel expanded, because the panel title would inform you if someone posted a message. I'd be pleased to see this functionality implemented in other editors (but please not in projects unrelated to editing OSM): the API is very simple and is also described in the wiki. The server, of course, is not restricted to OSM users in any way. If you want to use it for non-OSM activities, feel free: the source is on github: https://github.com/Zverik/geochat Thanks, IZ _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk _______________________________________________ HOT mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
