idea. At Finalizing I will definately follow the Gsoc and OSGeo guidelines.*

>>*As of me, it must binds as an algorithm which includes transformation to
line graph, identifying turns, computing metrics and then minimizing the
objective function.*
*    If You don't it as a potential proposal idea, then I am also doing
literature work for Multi-modal routing, generic directions and
trailer-truck routing problem.*
*    Please, Let me know if there is any useful resource(content) for the
above ideas.*

Also, to start making the tasks asked so that we consider your application

*>>> Its quite relatable to my approach, as I am also thinking of
implementing it using "Line graph" of the original road network, and using
Dijkstra's algorithm where the nodes and edges both contain weights.  *
