We're getting to the point where mapping is becoming a simple apt-get install away, and that's a great thing. Projects like this are important not so much because of the service they provide, but for the software that's being open sourced. For example I was able to set up a mapping server by compiling (only to get the latest versions) mapnik and osm2pgsql, downloading data from OSM, and voilà... Next step is way finding, and there are a few options available. Now I have another one to look into ;-)
