Hello everyone!

Christof Dallermassl have a tool GPSylon that can help us (how have to 
use windows tools) to make tracks with a windows laptop. The program is 
made in JAVA so it's cross platform and it's LGPL...give it a try!
http://www.tegmento.org/gpsylon/

At the moment he is implementing the option to export to GPX files (1.0 
and 1.1) the tracks. I have tested this feature for him in a alfa build 
he made, but the files are not validated by the tool in 
http://www.topografix.com/gpx_validation.asp . In a few days i think he 
can hunt down that bugs, i'll give news.

I'm sure when the OSM API is done he will integrate the option to direct 
upload  the tracks to OSM  server, and why not download vector street 
maps from OSM also... Isn't it Christof Dallermassl?! :P

I ask you JAVA programmers  to help him  implement some things...i 
can't...i don't have that skills :(
Contact him, he is a nice person!

Tiago
