The real question is does supporting bzip2/lzma offer advantages that are commensurate with the added implementation complexity, not just in pbf2osm but in every other reader too. Would you be willing to run an experiment with LZMA? If it shaves a gigabyte off of the planet, then I'd say its worth further consideration; if it shaves 100MB, then its not. Make a case for why it should be included. >> >> Excuse me, but discussing potential problems of a design is not a show >> of lack of respect - unless presented in a form like the aforementioned >> "osmosis devs failed to read the specs". > > Oh dear, so because I actually feedbacked on Scott and asked questions, > and verified my code and implemented the specs I cannot complain osmosis > didn't? You do realize that *I* designed the format AND wrote the spec AND wrote the osmosis reference implementation? That means that if there are any errors or omissions in that implementation or spec, they are my mistakes. If there is an ambiguity, then I have made the call as to what is right. If there are any differences between the spec, reference implementation, and the conceptual design, I'm the one resolving the conflict and determining the best way to fix the issue. I do appreciate you finding the bugs and ambiguities in the spec by being the first independent implementation, and I hope you will consider running the LZMA experiment, but you have been rude and insulting.
