JOSM would need to turn into GIMP, with turn, copy-and-paste, measure, background grid, etc. Or will it be easier to implement the OSM API in GIMP? That sounds like more than just a Google SoC project. I live in one of a group of 6 similar buildings, placed in zig-zag along a street. I don't want to draw each of the buildings. I should be able to copy, paste, turn, group, copy, paste, paste. / \ / \ / \ ------------------------ Then again, if I discover I drew all houses a little too short, I wouldn't want to edit all of them. They should be 6 instances of an object class and I should only need to update the object definition once. And we need that object to be a 3D model. Version 4711 of JOSM in 2015 will be quite advanced. -- Lars Aronsson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Aronsson Datateknik - http://aronsson.se _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
