Perhaps you should try your skill as a poet rather than a C 
programmer.  You seem to do quite well with the rhetoric style.

What part of GRASS is not applicable to OSM?  Their way of doing 
quad trees is not useful for us?  So we have to write our own?
Their way of doing quad trees is only useful for proprietary data, 
and to create free geodata OSM has to reinvent all the algorithms?

If that astounds you, fasten your seatbelt.  Bumpy road ahead.
