[OSM-talk] Xastir (Ham Radio APRS program for Linux) now reads OSM maps

[Andrew Errington]

Hi all,

I have posted an announcement on the OSM Announce list, but in case anyone 
missed it I'd like to mention here that Xastir now has 'alpha' support for 
OSM map tiles.  This is probably only of interest to radio amateurs, but it's 
good to see another 'consumer' of OSM data.

You can follow the discussion thread here:
http://lists.xastir.org/pipermail/xastir/2010-June/017939.html

To use this new feature you will have to compile the latest version of Xastir 
from source (CVS).  There are instructions for doing this at the Wiki.  Here 
is one example:

Best wishes,

Andrew
