I was annoyed by the current [EMAIL PROTECTED] server, so I sat down for 2 days and experimented. Result is a reimplementation of the [EMAIL PROTECTED] server which looks and works kind of identically to the real [EMAIL PROTECTED] server.
It's currently up here: http://tah.openstreetmap.org/%7Espaetz/ If people like it and it performs well, this could be the base for a next generation. It's strengths: 1) Uses regular OSM username/password, no more hunting for an account 2) Current [EMAIL PROTECTED] client works nearly without modifications with it, so transitions should be painless. (A few lines need adaptation) 3) It uses the tileset-as-1-file concept for storing and serving and at a first glance, this seems to look good. I didn't stress test it though. 4) It works like the old one, so requesting through informationfreeway etc should still work like before. I'll continue to hack on it during my spare time and let you know if/how things progress. And I'll document it, of course. spaetz _______________________________________________ Tilesathome mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tilesathome
