Sounds like a neat project.  Since it is using OpenStreetMap it vaguely
touches the scope of Debian GIS project.  At least I would consider to
package this in the Debian GIS team.

Is there any specific reason why the area is restricted to Berlin and
Brandenburg.  In other words:  Can I use this program also in the Harz
region (and if not why not)?

Kind regards

       Andreas.
