Where (on the client, on the server) and how (replicated database,
Mediawiki API calls) does it process data? Because it loads the monuments
quite slow.
As this is early version (Bump to
0.0.5.<https://github.com/bzg/wlmmap/commit/ea1ab796fef2711a4311ca94ef996353cfe88dda>)
I hope it will improve though.

It is very good that it is opensource. Not very widespread, but interesting
implementation language (Clojure), but it will be intreresting for me to
grok it, as I happen to use, not very widespread, but interesting
language too - Scala.
