Daniel, John,

This is a good idea. I do not know what the state of the OSM data is but 
this would be a good place to add that information. Last I knew there 
was a lot of discussion about how to handle routing related data in OSM, 
but I have not stayed on top of that. The best place to ask about this 
would be the OSM list.
