I know only how to do simple things with potlach, but it does not make much sense to have a dead key delete that does not work. Ok will remove the item from the list. mike ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

[OSM-talk] Potlatch and Gnash (was: JOSM will move to Java6)
And use the gnash runtime. I think it is a good idea to generate gnash-compatible Flash apps, for example to support whatever embedded system/ smartphone with a powerful OS. Agreed. I use gnash on all my machines nowadays, and while I can't say that it works for everything, it does work well enough that even my wife didn't ask me to (re)install Adobe's version. Note that there are also non-embeeded systems and non-smartphones on which Adobe's Flash is not available (non-x86 systems running GNU/Linux, like PowerPC macs, some netbooks and nettops, ...) The rumor said that when gnash-0.8.4 came out (or was it 0.8.6?), someone had Potlatch working with it. But I never managed to make it work. Currently, when I click the edit tab, Potlatch comes ou with some icons at the bottom, a pen cursor thingy, and the middle of screen gives me a macosx-style hourclock saying Please wait - loading presets and the hourclock keeps spinning eternally. Gnash seems not to be very active, but it is quite feature-complete. I'm pretty sure that Potlatch can be made to work on Gnash, if only the Gnash and Potlatch people got together and took it as an important goal. As it stands, Potlatch developpers do not seem very motivated and prefer to tie their hands a bit tighter with more proprietary technology, sadly.

[OSM-talk] Potlatch in Gnash - not far off?
Good news from the Gnash developers: Begin forwarded message: From: Sandro Santilli [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 11 July 2008 13:17:18 BDT Subject: [bug #21756] Potlatch OpenStreetMap editor displays heavily offset Follow-up Comment #21, bug #21756 (project gnash): Since you got distracted by spam I'll give you a good news: someone is working on support for remoting these days. It should be the missing block for potlatch support. :) cheers Richard___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
