Hi Steve,

I forgot to mention that the wiki page is already there:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OpenRouter_2009_SOC_Ideas
I made a quick summary and will probably add a bit more explanation later.

I agree. Good idea.

About the support for other data sources I also thought about. The OSM import needs some review, too. Here in Japan we don't have Navteq  nore TeleAtlas, so I just added OSM support so far.

Other ideas are good. Do you want to add them yourself?
