that is a great idea, but we cannot do it now as final year project. I
have suggested my junior  2nd year friends to do it as their project.
As for now we use internet facilities in college library so i cannot
skype you. I do have a question on OSM, i have edited many features
but they don't show up in map, when i check my edits it is there. Does
it take time for edits to shoe up in map?
