Hi Thomas, Actually I'm running my one instance of MapOSMatic just for Haiti right now, so the custom style-sheets wouldn't be an issue. That is something I'm already doing.
If I get things up and running on my own I'll let you know. Otherwise I can't wait to see things merged in. Are looking for donations to help with the new hosting? -Kate On Mon, Sep 13, 2010 at 2:27 AM, Thomas Petazzoni <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Kate, > > On Sun, 12 Sep 2010 20:09:55 -0400 > Kate Chapman <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Being able to use multiple style sheets and select from different >> paper sizes is of interest to me. > > Great.
