[Marble-devel] GSoC 2012 Marble Ideas

[Rahul Sharma]

Hi Torsten,
I understood now how marble has to do display the openstreetmap. But now I
wanted to ask that does the project want to say that now instead of the
jpeg or png files, would .osm files serve as tiles (in a way).

Please answer this question.

-Regards
