Dear all,

in case you have not noticed:
Administrative boundaries from OSM at all administrative levels are 
being visualized on a new dedicated global map layer at 
http://OpenMapSurfer.uni-hd.de
Maxim Rylov just has released the new second version of the admin layer 
with enhanced scale-dependent styling & labeling. It uses data from both 
ways and relations and handels missing tags in ways through using 
admin_level.
Still experimental, but...
Future enhancements may include also the visualization of problems or 
errors with respect to  boundaries in OSM.
The map layer is also a test for a new label placement algorithm that 
can place labels on both sides of a linestring. This map adds to Maxim's 
Roads, Semintransparent and Hillshade layers at OpenMapSurfer.
