As noted on IRC, this is not a bug, but a raw expression of the way we make our tiles, the numbers represent the distance in meters from the origin. I guess they're not strictly lats and lons, but its just OL's terms for the permalink. Attached is a modified copy of the map.js used on gravitystorm.co.uk which uses the projection features in OpenLayers 2.6, it sets displayProjection to fix the bug, and changes the existing reprojection functions to be wrappers around the OL code. It should just slot in, but is untested. It should also handle the existing permalinks semi-intelligently, assuming they're the old format if: a) The OL permalink control puts the position outside of the map's maxExtent (ie: sets centre to 0,0) b) lat, lon, zoom params are numbers (checked to be outside the expected range for lat lons) Hope this helps, Thomas Wood (Edgemaster)
