TrekBuddy

Guest · Posted: Thu Sep 07, 2006 3:57 pm Post subject: Great app: Here some suggestions:

1. Why not make a upload place for others to share the maps they converted? I have a *legal* map of switzerland which i calibrated and could share with others... Maybe just a new forum entry?

2. Why not "Open Source" TrekBuddy? I would be interessted in enhancing stuff...

3. Really great and simple app! Thanks!

NEI

Upload place is a good idea. I'll discuss it with this forum's hosting owner...

I haven't thought about making the application open source, but I'm not saying no Smile

Thanks!

Why not upload it to www.openstreetmap.org as well?

I made a little java app for downloading google maps. It also creates the right calibration file. Smile

At least it works really great here in europe. I have to refine it a little bit next weekend and then could give it to you for distribution. I have no idea if this is legal, because i don't use the Google API but use URL-Coding. You can decide if i should upload or not...

Cool

Although I'm unsure if it is legal or not, I guess I'm not the only one looking for such application Cool

I've just downloaded v 0.8.9, and it works well on a Nokia 6680. Excellent!

I can sponsor a subversion / CVS server if kruch decides to opensource it.

CVS is dead, and it should be left to rest in peace. svn, minimum! (See also mercurial, bazaar).

One step at a time though: if kruch wants to free his code, that would be great; if he doesn't, that's... OK too Wink

It's up to him where it lives, and who can change it.
