Recently I wrote about changes and improvement I had made. Unfortunately
I didn't find time to merge my changes with CVS version of OpenMap's
sources. And this is why I didn't send you any sources. Sorry.

Float/double functionality is long waiting one. I think that first I
merge my code with 4.6.3 release then I could send you changes. Next I
would try to adopt my code to 4.7 release. If it is successful I will
definitely switch to 4.7 code base.

I wander is it possible to have write access to BBN's CVS repository? It
is quite complicated to me working now:
- first I have to checkout sources from BBN
- then I have to manually merge changes with version checked
company's repository
- this process is complicated end error prone especially if files
was reformatted by some kind of beautifier
- then I commit changes to company's repository
- other developers also change OpenMap's code - this is why we don't
just use compiled OpenMap.jar
- our own changes in comparison to original sources are detected
during merge.
- then I have to collect all changed files, prepare comments and
send it to openmap-users group
- I could imagine similar process that you have to follow to
incorporate my changes into your version of source tree
Having write access to repository would help me submit changes in easier
way. I hope it also helps you.
I'm waiting for 4.7 beta release. Please take into consideration my
proposition.
Best regards,
Piotr Kaminski
