Hi again, great, thanks for these initial information. Achieved so far: - creating my personal account - creating a tool account (lalm) with a description - can connect to the labs osm database using pgAdmin3.
missing yet: - tomcat: as described in [1] setup-tomcat seems to have passed, but the command webservice-tomcat isn't found. any help is appreciated. regards Peter [1]https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nova_Resource:Tools/Help#Java_webservice_.28Tomcat.29 Am 20.08.2014 um 14:17 schrieb Marc-André Pelletier: > On 08/20/2014 05:03 AM, Peter Wendorff wrote: >> - the Lalm is not a tool for wikipedia itself, it's an experimental >> portal for blind and visually impaired to navigate on the Openstreetmap >> data. > > Labs is made available for work for the Wikimedia projects, but also for > "allied" and related projects.
