It is right that the German page want to be a more user friendly but I hope we don't get something like this for the internation page because the German version isn't quite that good (even though it's a step into the right direction). The map is just too small and there is just too much to see: comercial at the right and tones of links to the left and the bottom. For that I allways link to the international page and not the german page if somebody wants to know more about the project or just want to take a look at the map. I like the p4 mockup from the wiki-page. Some issues about this mockup have already been posted here so I won't go into that (I just mention missing wiki/help link and the "shop tab" - issu). p1 is also quite good but still looks a little too much like the current version which makes it look a little old. But maybe it's not so bad to have a page which looks alot like the current one that the people recognise it. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
