[OSM-dev] Ruby-port api local use

[Alex Wilson]

Thanks all. I did in fact attempt to set up some dummy users - a new one for
each distinct user-userId pair in the xml I downloaded. I'll go back and see
what I did wrong...

Looking over the api, it looks like we're really only going to be able to
test a small number of the queries with our own setup: given that I don't
have version information, user data etc... Is there any chance at some later
date that I might be able to get read-only access to (or a dump of) the live
database (or a section thereof) to get things working further?

What we've done so far is available here (not quite ready to trial - but in
case anyone's interested in coding style, etc):
http://code.google.com/p/modosmapi/

Dependencies are: apache 2.0, xerces, and boost.

Thanks,

Alex
