[OSM-talk] Routing Applications

[Dave F.]

In theory competition drives functionality improvements, although in 
this case it's not clear if this happened. Any map based website that 
doesn't include a permalink option isn't worth using, Unless it's been 
recently added & is very well hidden OSMR hasn't this option.
