[Routing] Fellow mappers, , , I have the pleasure to announce the initial release of a high-perfomance, routing backend that is able to handle thousand(s) of requests per, minute. So, without further ado, here is the Open Source Routing Machine,

[Daniel Kastl]

Hi,

It would be nice to have some "standard" routing format, so applications
don't have to support each and every single routing service. For example
OpenLayers could then have a "routing" layer type. That would be convenient,
I think.

There is something called OpenLS and I tried to use it, but didn't really
feel happy with it. Also XML style formats like KML, OpenLS or GML easily
get very big and this makes your OpenLayers client slow with certain
browsers and a large number of features. So I agree with Markus that GeoJSON
is nice, but it would be even better if there would be some standard way how
to describe routing specific attributes. Something like OpenLS for GeoJSON.
Anyone interested?

Daniel
