Oh noes:)
As I told Daniel I really didn't want to end up playing server admin,
but I'll do it if there's nobody else to do it. There are certain
concerns about private data at play here which don't make it easy to
give access freely.
Do we have a list of people who're interested in the administration
aspect of this? I.e. setting up & maintaining database & tile
rendering services and/or doing other miscellaneous administration
tasks.
I can help with some miscellaneous tasks related to mapping software and databases, but not managing or approving accounts which I think should be handled by WMDE and/or toolserver admins. And, I don't want to over commit myself to too many tasks -- more than my time available to handle.
For the database setup on the toolserver, I think PostgreSQL (with PostGIS) is essential for its spatial data capabilities, along with OSM specific tools.
