I had a look at the new features released today and already discussed some of the following issues in the project's IRC channel. But to make them available to a wider audience I repost them here. I also tried to post to your dev mailing list, but it was not reachable from here and simply posting to <a href="mailto:dev@maposmatic.org">dev@maposmatic.org</a> didn't work.<br><br>First, I've spotted a missing space character in the german translation and also a complete paragraph missing translation. I then cloned the git repository, fixed the missing space and saw that the translation that is missing online, is available in the source file. However I was not able to push my changes online again. Please consider switching to a popular and widely used git network like Github. That would make collaboration a lot easier and we had great results using Github for walking-papers for the translations and more. The push and pull system there allows everyone to contribute while still maintaining a stable version of the website. I'm sure you could attract a lot more translators and code contributors there as well.<br><br>Anyway, the missing space char is in django.po in the .de directory in line 299, it should look this way when fixed: <br><br>"Dieser Webservice wurde <i>MapOSMatic</i> genannt,\n"<br><br>Another issue I found is the usage of boundary relations. According to the IRC you're only using admin_level=8 relations. As you can read in the OSM wiki [1] in Germany we also use admin_level=6 for larger cities such as Munich or Berlin... Currently searching for them in MapOSMatic doesn't give you a working result. I suggest you to expand your system so it firstly searches for admin_level=8 relations and in case of no success continues to search for admin_level=6.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Jonas<br><br>[1] <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary=administrative">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dadministrative</a></div></body></html>
