When MoNav learned to speak

Hi,

http://www.christeck.de/wp/2011/12/20/when-monav-learned-to-speak/

That's it. No usable result, but I hope to proceed during the next weeks 
and months.

More speech output

Hi,

http://code.google.com/p/monav/source/browse/?name=permaroute

As anticipated, creating useful speech output is more than demanding. 
It's quite challenging, and frankly, I'm not suprised about that.

The current code contains ugly hacks (Stevie Wonder would sing »Isn't it 
ugly«) and is anything else than usable (exept for hardcore OSM addicts 
like me, of course).

What I have done so far

* Persistent route

MoNav now is capable of detecting whether the current position is near 
the computed route or not. This helps to take GPS inaccuracy into 
account. The route is not recalculated at each GPS update anymore. 
Instead, MoNav checks whether ther current position is near one of the 
route's segments. If so, it keeps the route (or truncates it in case the 
vehicle moves along the route). In case the vehicle leaves the route for 
more than x meters, MoNav recalculates the route.

* Position clicking

Clicking the source on the map now behaves like a moving vehicle. In 
case the click is near the route, it will either be shortened, retained 
or recomputed as if the click was a real GPS position. This mainly 
serves for debugging purposes, but is useful for demonstration anyway.
