Hey Guys,<br>

</div>Well, Tim asked me to comment on this thread, so here we go.<br>
In the last few months I spent a great deal of time rewriting bot<br>
front and back end of the WikiMiniAtlas. The new front end code is now<br>
JQuery based and more compact. The backend code is more flexible and<br>
allowes me to now support clickable map labels in 70 languages. Other<br>
new features include<br>
<br>
* Short article synopsis when Ctrl+hovering over a label<br>
* Highlighting all coordinates of the current article with click<br>
navigation (try this on list articles with 100s of coordinates)<br>
<br>
My development version supports dynamic resizing of the map window.<br>
This would make it fairly straight forward now to support new tile<br>
sizes (WMA tiles are 128x128, OSM is 256x256). The other difference<br>
compared to OSM is the mapprojection. My label backend used to be<br>
designed for one particular mapprojection (lat-long). The added<br>
flexibility in the new backend would make it possible to add support<br>
for Mercator-like projections as OSM or GoogleMaps have.<br>
<br>
To make the story short: Supporting OSM tiles in the WMA jumped to the<br>
top of my priority list. Due to IRL commitments I'm fairly tied up<br>
with work until June. But this project is exciting and fun enough for<br>
me to sneak in a few hours of coding here and there.<br>
<br>
