[mkgmap-dev] Gmapibuilder: Searching for new site to host source code

Wed Feb 10 22:25:53 GMT 2010

If Gmapibuilder is not suitable for the Mkgmap SVN repository, then you 
could try the OSM SVN repository... I guess many of us already have an 
account for the OSM repository.

As a sidenote, I got a mail today about Gmapibuilder results claiming 
that the MapInstaller gives an error with my latest map release. Since I 
haven't changed gmapibuilder it might be something in Mkgmap (r1557) 
that triggers this. Is someone with access to a Mac able to check? 
Unfortunately I cannot find the email report with the exact description 
anymore... 8-? The gmapibuilder version I have is dated Nov 16, 2009 (I 
think Clinton mailed that one to me).
