[mkgmap-dev] British National Grid and Latitude/Longitude

_British National Grid__/__Latitude and Longitude_

I have recently found that the files of the British National Grid and 
Latitude/Longitude which I published in OSM XML format 
(http://www.rogercalvert.me.uk/OSM) are not compatible with Osmosis. 
This expects OSM XML format version 0.6, while my files were version 
0.5. The critical difference seems to be that in OSM 0.6, nodes and ways 
must have a /version/ attribute. This significantly increases the file 
size - about 25% for the GBGrid and about 13% for LatLong covering Great 
Britain.

I have modified the National Grid download package to include both 0.5 
and 0.6 versions.

I have added an option for the Latitude/Longitude generator to allow 
selection of version (0.6 is the default).

Please let me know of any problems you encounter in accessing or using 
these.
