Hey Andrea

Hmm, guess I should have pointed these out before:
- Never mind the labeling: it was done "by hand" - yes, the labels are
vectors! The data already came to us like that, our job is just to render it
nicely
- Ahm, never mind the icons with call-outs either: they are also just
vectors lying there (sorry to disappoint you). Actually, implementing real
call-outs is on our wish-list, but it's not a priority.

Anyways, the quality is for real, no tricks there!
Oh yes, just to make it clear: all the icons in the map are SVG
ExternalGraphics (the birds, crabs, fish, etc). Only the background color of
the colored icons is an additional Circle Symbolizer.

Cheers,
Milton
