Openstreetmap Routing

    Hi guys,

    I am developing an application using Openstreetmap and openlayers. I would like to add some routing functionality to it. I have spent the last while researching how to do it, and have really come to a dead end.

    So far I have found I have two options. I can subscribe to the Cloudmade webservice and do my routing that way, however I come up against the problem that it is quite pricey for me to use this method.

    I then looked into using pgrouting, which would be fine, except for a problem I am having with it. So far as I can see, in order to use the pgrouting functionality I need to use a linux or ubunto operating system as in order to load the osm files into my routing database I need to use a program called osm2pgrouting which is not available for windows systems.

    I have near exhausted google at this stage looking for help, and was wondering if any of you fine folk could offer me so help or advice.

    Many thanks in advance.
