We've got OS StreetView and the ITO Locator layer in Potlatch2 already, and they are very useful. I'd expect some of the vector products when the p2 vector background handling is more mature. Are there any in particular you were thinking of? Cheers, Andy PS There's lots of out-of-copyright layers in Potlatch2 too, but that's not what we're discussing. _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
