 As you can see, there's no map, but a nice border ;)

 As David wrote in the announcement that you quoted: For now, it only
 supports rendering French metropolitan cities' maps.

 Thus your observations don't really come as a surprise.

Yes, as Frederik underlined, we are only supporting metropolitan
France right now.

But we are working on world support. The change of scale (75 GiB of
database, 9h to import a daily diff) has a bit surprised us. We are
discovering that the OSM world is huge! ;-)

Best regards,
david

[OSM-dev] t...@h Server Down

2009-09-23 Thread Sebastian Spaeth
FYI,

there was a power blackout at the ETH and the t...@h server was affected
too. Power is on again, but apparently some firewall network cards seem
to be damaged, so t...@h is currently not reachable by anyone (including me).

I was promised to get to know when they resolved the issue but ATM I can
give no estimates on when that would be the case, sorry.

 People are reporting server problems ATM so try again later, and if the 
 problem persist, we'll investigate further.

I've josm-tested (version 1981) = it works
  josm-latest (version 2180) = it doesn't work

The bug occurs if no data have been downloaded before the call to 
openUrl (wich calls DownloadOsmTask). If I download some data with 
Ctrl+Maj+D and then call openUrl, it works fine.

I think the bug comes from :

Re: [OSM-dev] How do I do make shaded area overlays with openlayers or something similar?

2009-09-23 Thread John Smith
2009/9/23 Steven te Brinke s.tebri...@student.utwente.nl:
 OpenLayers has nice support for vectors. It supports many formats, you can
 easily add WKT geometries for example. This is the best way to go if you
 want to add simple or dynamic overlays.
 The postcode finder you mentioned uses a tiled layer. Such a layer can be
 rendered using Mapnik. I have a nice example in [1]: Google Hybrid like, but
 with OSM data on top of their aerial images (unfortunately my site is Dutch,
 but it shows the idea).

I ended up making a simple mapnik style sheet with just town names and
post codes.

This has made spotting errors really easy, although I'm stumped as to
why some post codes aren't being rendered, like this area:

Re: [OSM-dev] The OpenStreetMap website is now translatable at Translatewiki

 But which OSM components does this cover? I'm assuming this only covers the

It's only the website at the moment as Siebrand says. But it would be
very nice to add other OpenStreetMap applications, the most obvious
next step being Potlatch.

To add Potlatch some internal changes need to be done in Potlatch
itself. I've filed a bug detailing what these are:

http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/2304

I don't think Richard minds this change to Potlatch but he'd rather
not do the work since he's working on Potlatch 2. Changing this is
easy even if you're not familiar with Potlatch, you just have to
change all the calls to the iText(): remove the first parameter and
split it ont a YAML file.

If you (or someone else) interested in seeing Potlatch on
Translatewiki solving that bug is the first step towards doing that.
The second one is hacking an importer/exporter for Potlatch's YAML
format for Translatewiki. That's easy though, it's just a matter of
reusing the existing YAML code without all the complexities we had to
deal with for supporting applications using Rails' i18n framework.

It would also be a very interesting project to use Translatewiki to
translate some subsets of the OpenStreetMap data itself.

For instance country or state names, capitals, or cities with 0.5
million people, stuff like that.

TranslateWiki .. awesome stuff!


Agreed some kind of way to translate specific parts of the OSM database would 
have huge payoff.
There's a large open translation community online, we only need to give them 
familiar tools.

I'd reckon that we'd want our own custom tool for this. It would connect to the 
API, rather than SVN.
Maps could be embedded in the tool, to provide geographic context for 
translators.


Also, the Foundation has growing needs for translators for our communications. 
Wonder if TranslateWiki or something else
is a way to get that done.

[josm-dev] Preset about roundabouts

2009-09-23 Thread Pieren
JOSM presets is adding a oneway=yes tag for roundabouts. Could you
remove this, please ? This is in contradiction with the wiki (linked
in the dialog itself) which says clearly that oneway is implied:

 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:junction%3Droundabout

and something about common sens since it is said since years in OSM
that the direction of the way gives the oneway direction in
roundabouts. And if it is not oneway, it is simply not a roundabout
(excepted for the 3 or 4 magic roundabouts in the world). Otherwise we
start to see complains about roundabouts tagged with oneway=-1

 http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/josm-dev/2009-March/002731.html

We also see some validation tools that report this as an error (osmose)
