At least I found that my client uploaded an empty tile instead of rendered 
data at least on one occasion. I run current SVN. Happend Saturday or 
Sunday when the API servers seemed to have some troubles.

At the weekend I had a look through uploaded tiles and found some errors 
for maybe every 10th very complex tile and also sometimes for the very 
easy ones. Also there were no special user related errors, but it seemed 
it was spread allover the [EMAIL PROTECTED] user spectrum :-)
