-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 The basic outline;
- - People seem to love using tile.openstreetmap.org for any of their apps - - Apps get blocked for various reasons, contributing back is difficult - - OpenStreetMap wants to be the leading provider of such data I would propose a small working group to outline what should happen to facilitate the creation of a Content Delivery Network (CDN) serving the basic tiles, and allow easy contribution this network. This should produce a prototype of at least 3 servers. Questions such as: quality, update frequency, traffic shaping, geographical balancing and high availability could be part of this working group. I would like to invite anyone to participate, especially: - people that already have their own tileservers running, and/or are currently balancing traffic; - business folks: what could be a motivation and what can be a cutback in for example attribution, - users of for example openlayers, etc. what kind of caching can be applied, and if this should be configurable client side Participation can announced in private or on list.
