[Marble-devel] [marble] src/plugins/runner: Deactivate MapQuest routing.

[Dennis Nienhüser]

Hi Anders,

sounds like a good idea to me. I still expect that the number of people
using the service via Marble drops near zero, but at least it'll be
possible to keep using it.

Does anyone see a problem with this approach? Otherwise I'd make it a
GCI task.

Regards,
Dennis
