[OSM-dev] OSM in a Box

[Stefan Keller]

Hi,

That was a students project and is not supported anymore.
It's still in use in Germany somewhere including a patch regarding
bigint osm_ids,
It had some nice ideas regarding OSM schema mapping to GIS.
But I agree with Serge:
Images/Docker containing osm2pgsql will be a better choice these days.

Yours, Stefan
