Application submission: OSM2go updates
Project Name: OSM2go
Author: Dakon aka. DerDakon (Rolf Eike Beer)
Brief description: OSM2go has been improved lately. It now uses C++ for many things, which results in reduced memory usage (std::vector and friends instead of handcoded single-linked lists). It gained some new features (e.g. nested presets, so a newer set of JOSM presets can be used), a couple of memory leaks were fixed. Based on the C++ port a Qt5 based GUI will eventually come, hopefully bringing OSM2go to Jolla.
Category: Fixing/Updating
Features/work to be judged:
- speed and memory improvements (e.g. https://github.com/osm2go/osm2go/com...8bbf2dc273f793 https://github.com/osm2go/osm2go/com...de8895b0b6e9db )
- new presets features (list of presets used in the currently selected object [presets -> "Used presets"], multi-level presets hierarchy)
- usability improvements (e.g. place node at current GPS position, "Update all" to update all project OSM files)
- the good karma that someone still updates programs for the N900
