Ok thanks Tim,

  I had some trouble at first trying to use 
minResolution/maxResolution...  But quickly found out that when you want 
a layer only visible at a certain "reach", you must choose either scale 
OR resolution to work with, not both.  I was setting maxResolution to 
3.527775872778806 but at some point it was given a new value of 
35.27775872778806 ( the maxResolution of the baseLayer... ) because I 
used scales:[xx,xx,xx].

  Using resolutions[xx,xx,xx] solved this problem.

  But, in the end it didn't help with my cluster strategy problem.  I 
still have to hack Cluster.js to make it work properly.  Well, in the 
end I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.  Sorry.

Alexandre
