Add Ohtli - Free-access web editor for GTFS

Ohtli is a free-access tool for creating and managing GTFS transit data, especially for cities where public transport information still exists mostly as operational knowledge instead of structured digital systems. Built around OpenStreetMap, it helps map routes, stops, and service patterns quickly, turning fragmented information into standardized transit feeds that can be used by maps, trip planners, and rider information systems.

More than a GTFS editor, Ohtli is designed as open digital infrastructure for public transport. Its goal is to reduce the technical and institutional barriers that make transit data production difficult in much of Latin America, allowing agencies, municipalities, researchers, and civic groups to collaboratively build and maintain interoperable transit data over time.

Is Ohtli open source by chance? I'd like to adapt to to EU use cases and contribute features!

@derhuerst The source code is not publicly available at the moment, but we hope to release it once the project becomes more stable. We appreciate your feedback. If you use it and encounter any issues or have suggestions, please feel free to let us know.

@oxcar Please consider publishing it before it has become stable. Many projects never get published because they're not done/stable, and then eventually die because of shifting priorities/focus, while someone else could pick up the maintenance. For me personally, using the project is only an option if it's open-source because only then I can be sure enough its long-term future is secure (enough).
