OpenStreetMap XML Support?

Just wondering if there could be support built in for the OpenStreetMap "OpenStreetMap XML Data" vector data format?
I've attached the XML file for a sample area...
Thanks Mike,

Global Mapper can already directly load those files using the File->Open Data File menu command. We plan to add export to the OSM XML format in a future release.
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Thanks,

It does? I just tried to load it by drag and drop and it failed, I'll try the menu option
(edit)
Hmm, okay i can see an openstreetmap OSM format but not an XML format... Looks like I can only export to XML from the website... Let me do more investigating...
(edit)
Ahh ok, they may have changed their format as the filenames are now "filename.osm.xml", I dropped the .xml tag off the end of the file name and she loaded in fine... Maybe adding support for opening *.osm.xml might be helpful in the open file dialogue setup
Thanks Mike... -
Dean,
The extension was the problem. I have added auto-recognition of .osm.xml files as well. I have placed a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper10.zip with the change for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v10.xx installation folder to give it a try.
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Thanks,
Mike
