Explore the parallels in substack's Open Street Maps libraries

[flyingzumwalt]

substack has created a library for distributing Open Street Maps data that has many similarities with our intended features for jawn. Take a look at https://github.com/digidem/osm-p2p-db

Where jawn aims at handling any tabular data, osm-p2p-db is built specifically to handle open street maps data.

• we can imitate the code patterns and tests
• we could potentially use its underlying libraries

Note: these libraries use hyperlog instead of hypercore. There are some tradeoffs between hyperlog and hypercore.
