Josef Kleber submitted an update to the

                  getmap

package.

Version number: v1.6
License type: lppl

Summary description: Download OpenStreetMap, Google Maps or
                     Google Street View maps

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 The goal of this package is the simplest possible provision of
 map images (OpenStreetMap, Google Maps and Google Street View 
 are supported). In the simplest case, the specification of an
 address is sufficient. The package loads the map using the
 \write18 feature, which you must activate to use this package.
 The image will be downloaded by an external Lua script. You can 
 use this script also from the command line.

 Changes in v1.6:

 - added gpx2epl, gps2epl and gpx2gps modes to getmapdl.lua

   parses gpx and gps files and outputs gps or epl (encoded
   polylines) to STDOUT, e.g:
   
   getmapdl -m gpx2epl -G myroute.gpx >myroute.epl

 - removed gpx2gps bash file

 - updated documentation
