Hi<br>
<br>
This is one of my OSM bugbears: <a href="http://osm.duschmarke.de/bbox.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://osm.duschmarke.de/bbox.<wbr>html</a><br>
<br>
Is there /really/ any need for *six* coordinate formats? It's hard enough to learn a new process without basics like this tripping you up. Is there any reason why the developers of these programs can't talk to each other & simplify the situation?<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
DaveF.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
But such a situation is the same everywhere. Take Plug & socket types <a href="http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plugs-and-sockets/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.worldstandards.eu/e<wbr>lectricity/plugs-and-sockets/</a><br>
<br>
These plugs types (and adapters) are the cause of numerous problems for travelers (like searching in a town for an adapter at night, sigh...). However, it seems indeed people can't talk to each other.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
O.<br>
