Sonds promising but a short question:
what happens to the way IDs, if the map data is upgraded on the server but not on the client which uses the route?
As I understand, the data in Openstreetmap is quite dynamic...

Sounds good.


6. Y for fastest route, N for shortest

It might be easier to just consider this to be part of the "mode" field

so "vehicle type" might become
* "car, fastest route"
* "car, shortest route"
* "car, non-motorway"
* "car, quiet roads"

7. Y to output way names, N to output way IDs

Not having the option for way names could potentially make implementations a lot simpler (e.g. allows fixed-width output, routing servers not required to store road names) and clients can go to OSMXAPI with the list of way numbers
if they want more info.



The only other option I could think of for the interface is "format" (binary,
text, json, or xml)

4. Bearing to travel
5. Length of leg

Note that 4 and 5 are actually redundant.

Agree about those being redundant - probably easier for the client to
calculate that if they want it.
