Yes, it would be helpful if we mention where we can get the hgt files, a few 
examples of the dem-dist values and an explanation how to calculate it. This 
information is already there but mentioned in the many updates  of the branch 
versions.

I use  http://www.javawa.nl/srtm/index.php?lang=nl because it has a good 
overview map, the disadvantage is that you need to download every single tile 
manually and not in one big download. Maybe there are better alternatives?

Hi all,

with r4093 I've merged the dem-tdb branch into trunk. I think it would be good 
to mention this in the
"Latest news" on [1] , maybe with one or two screen shots, but I have no idea 
how to write this "from a users view".
Do we need a how-to that describes the sources for hgt files and maybe more 
about the new options?
It would be great if somebody could help with that.
