Hi Hilaire,
OSM tiles support was added to Roassal, and demonstrated in two videos
[1][2]. The context of the work was presented at FOSDEM [3].
In the pillarhub document, I demonstrated how to query the raw OSM data;
we made sure that the tile support and georeferenced data could go on
the same level, and be precise to the pixel to the underlying tile
rendering.
I'm sure all this works in Pharo4, just try the RTOSM examples! There is
probably a way to make it interactive with data downloading and a
playground, using the sample code present in the pillarhub document.
[2] is a bit different, it uses a sensor network design tool and
simulateur which requires VisualWorks, Occam and/or a Cuda GPU :). But
it makes for an interesting demo / talk if it is your field, just
contact Onil.

Hi,
In a few weeks I will give a speech in Taiwan at NCHC[1] about Pharo, my
intend is to present release 4. I already did speeches there in the past
about Pharo, but I have a hard time to raise interest to the point
people want to jump in.
But I hope to have an angle this time because NCHC recently offers a
server and the hosting for an openstreetmap tile server (the first in
Asia by the way), and there is high interest here in Taiwan about OSM
related stuff.
I read here, job has been done with Roassal and OSM, but it is not clear
for me how to get in using OSM within Pharo. I am particularly
interested in providing an interactive demo where live programming shows
its value.
I have found these pointers bellow. I am interested by any additional
tips and url, and particularly the compatibility with Pharo4.
