[Routing] [OSM-dev] Version 0.2 of Open Source Routing Machine (OSRM) released

[Josh Doe]

This looks great! I couldn't find it on the site or wiki, but are
there plans to create routing profiles? I'm particularly interested in
pedestrian routing, though once you do that you get
cycle/wheelchair/etc routing.

Regards,
