Finally met (online) with someone from my, I admit, little country. Now let's see if two can roll things out faster than one.

Also noticed that what I wanted to do, namely writing a routing application for mobile phones, is already underway. Now I'm in doubt whether to give up the idea and just keep mapping or to join one of the projects. I'm seriously thinking about a joined forces operation, but don't consider myself even close to an expert, so I might frustrate people.

One general remark, and I think this should be further discussed on the wiki, is that we seem to be very good at wasting resources (ourselves). I see more than 5 routing applications (and the list misses GPSmid). It might be time to consolidate efforts? On the other hand, diversity gives choice and competition, thus a benefit for the customer.. if any of the choices did the job it's supposed to do.

In case that you're working on such an application: do not consider this ungrounded criticism. I saw a lot of good stuff, that would together make a very nice application. Only it's distributed over 3 or 4 different ones. Consider this a call for cooperation amongst developers.

I'll have a closer look in the coming weeks. Expect an update. Comments welcome of course.
