Maybe it is time for a tiling BOF at the FOSS4G? I'm speaking right after you on my first attempt for a tilemanagement tool (TileSeeder http://code.google.com/p/tileseeder/ a bit more alpha than I hoped by now though) and after me Till Adams compares mapproxy, tilecache and geowebcache. That should give a reasonable crowd who might be interested in such a BoF :) Steven _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
