Sounds sensible to me. I'll continue to use that format for now. I'm
adding a new task (maybe --bounding-polygon to match existing
--bounding-box ... --extract-polygon could also work) which will look
something like this on the command line.
osmosis --read-xml file=planet.osm --bounding-polygon file=polygon.xxx
--write-xml file=australia.osm
If we change the format in the future it should be simple to add a new
task argument like fileFormat. For example.
osmosis --read-xml file=planet.osm --bounding-polygon file=polygon.xxx
fileFormat=maproom --write-xml file=australia.osm
