[Osmf-talk] Microgrant proposal: Osm2pgsql development

[Jochen Topf]

Hi!

I have applied for a microgrant to help with "Osm2pgsql development".

For over 10 years osm2pgsql has been and still is a major component of
many OSM rendering tool chains. The work is a step in modernizing
osm2pgsql and make it more flexible for bringing the variety of OSM data
into our maps.

You can find the proposal here:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Microgrants/Microgrants_2020/Proposal/Osm2pgsql_development

I have also written two blog posts lately with some more details of my
recent and planned work:

https://blog.jochentopf.com/2020-05-10-new-flex-output-in-osm2pgsql.html

I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have about the project.
The osm2pgsql issue tracker at
https://github.com/openstreetmap/osm2pgsql/issues is also a good place
discuss planned changes etc.

Jochen
