Dear Barbeau,Tran,

Thank You for the assistance sir. As I told early, I am trying to add
some functionality to Open Trip Planner as my GSOC project under
OpenStreetMaps. Also I have done Android project at my university,
which is similar to the OpenTripPlanner. I have used Google Maps for
that app. It is mainly based on Sri Lanka and It is called Travel
Ceylon.http://insightforfuture.blogspot.com/2012/01/travel-ceylon-inteligent-travel-planner.html

I have added following functionality to my app,

User can plan their own travel according to the following constrains,
after processing all those constrains the Travel Ceylon app will
suggest you are travel path to follow and list of interesting place
which you can see on the path.

    Interest list of the traveler.
    Starting position.
    Destination
    Time period of travel.
    Special places to be included.
    Special places to be avoided.
    Cities can be marked as cities you stay for see place or just
passing cities.

When a user accept a suggested travel plan by the app, he can follow
it. On the way through the plan app will notify you about places your
are reaching,their importance, places you can visit etc.

So As I noticed, the OpenTripPlanner have most of these functionality.
But I cant figure out what have not given in OpenTripPlanner. So can
you please help me in that case ?

Also I have cloned the git repository to my machine. And I have change
its AndroidManifest.xml to change the Android SDK version, I have just
changed it to API 8 and tried to run it. Most of the time it docent
run,it shows only black screen most of the time. When it runs first it
ask to select a server,

Then I choose USA server, Then it shows the main UI. Then I choose my
starting point and Destination point and click the button Plan Trip.
Then it shows some pending dialog and after while it shows nothing.
When I check the LogCat at Eclipse it has following error.

03-23 21:12:40.535: E/OTP(358): No route to display!

I cant figure out what is the reason. I have done is change the apps
android version and tried to run it on API15 emulator. I have internet
connectivity well. Please help me to proceed further.

Thank You Very Much Sir

Andun,

    Feel free to ask me and Khoa (cc’d) any questions.  Khoa is
actively working on the application and working to resolve several
known issues.  You may want to update your local git repo clone to the
most recent code on Github, since there are several fixes there, and I
believe the Github version should be fully functional now.

    Dear Mr

    I am a university student who is trying to do a GSOC project with
Open Street Maps. They suggest a project to improve the functionality
of the Android application OpenTripPlanner for Android. So I have
clone the git repository to my machine and start some working. But
some errors raises when I try to do it. They have given you as the
License holder for this project. So can I raise those question for you
or is there a mailing list to raise those question sir?

    Thank You
