Comment on A new Openstreetmap API framework for PHP. by kenguest

I was going to do that after the package gets approved for inclusion in PEAR and have the docs hosted on the PEAR site. What I’ll do for the moment, however, is add it to the wiki and point to the existing docs on github. Thanks for finding this of interest!

Sounds interesting So add your implementation to the wiki and create a sep. page with some more details (and examples?)

Comment on Adding colour to your mysql prompt by kenguest

Yes, I have; more efficiently it should be:
prompt=’\U (\d) > ‘

Just for the giggle factor, I’m defining it in my .bashrc now though:

if [ -x /usr/bin/rlwrap ]; then
alias mysql=”/usr/bin/rlwrap -a –prompt-colour=’1;33′ /usr/bin/mysql”
export MYSQL_PS1=”\U [`hostname`] (\d) > ”
else
export MYSQL_PS1=’\u@\h (\d) > ‘
fi

Due to running a lower version of rlwrap, I’ve had to define the prompt colour differently.

Very neat! Though, in the prompt specification for mysql, do you have the \h and \u the wrong way around?

I know this page is a bit old and dated so not too sure if anyone will reply to this but what about the latest handheld GPS systems from the likes of Garmin? Most of these nowadays come with mapping facilities and a whole host of other features. I've been trying to find the best GPS for the money so I can use it for street and terrain mapping and the Garmin ones seem pretty good. Any thoughts?

Comment on OpenStreetMap at the Farmleigh Park Geeknic in Dublin, anybody? by MiKa

If you update your WordPress OSM plugin to version 0.9.2 you will enjoy performance improvement that influences your whole blog since libraries are only loaded when they are needed. Gtx, MiKa

Good that you guys warned me. Now I have no reason to waste my time on this book. I will leave it behind and move with other alternatives

Hi Ken, thanks for the collection, I updated it in the wiki cause I think this is a more central place.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Portal:Press#Resources

I think we lack a little bit of more centralisation for all our info stuff
