few minor improvements: - Add trailing slash in the URL of osmarender tiles <tag k="tiles" v="http://tah.openstreetmap.org/Tiles/tile"/> to have it written uniformly - minZoom (defaulting 1) & maxZoom levels (mapnik vs. osmarender tiles) - bbox (if limited to not cover whole world, such as slovakia) - slippy URLs could include layers parameter to go directly to that layer in browser Maybe adding lat, lon & zoom parameters would also go to specific location...khm, but parameter namse can differ over sites, so it would have to be sth like http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat={lat}&lon={lon}&zoom={zoom}&layers=0BFT but that won't work if parameters are not known (url http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=&lon=&zoom=&layers=0BFT shows nothing) , so they'd need to be taken out or have all that info in an additional parameter named slippyPermalink or so. (eg i want my phone to send permalinks, not just coordinates, so that recipient can go directly to my cycling/skiing/road map and see my whereabouts). Permalink URLs accepting degrees or some arbitrary openlayers units as parameters is another issue, out of the scope here. Is that stored in some db? It could be put in main db as nodes tagged with config=slippy_map_layer and all other keys? Clients could then fetch it from osmxapi ... that would be convinient, but abusing the main DB and opening clients to abuse by editors :) Probably having it in SVN is better than abusing the DB.
