[OSM-dev] request for hosting of WMS layers

[jamesmikedupont at googlemail.com]

HI,

I have offers from hypercube and wms.openstreetmap.de thanks to them for
assisting.

we can use any services available, meaning if you have hdd bandwidth and cpu
to share we can find more data to host.

sorry that I have not responded earlier, I need to put some more time into
this.

what about a way to distribute these layers? I am thinking about putting the
map files on a git repo, (well I have them)
http://gitorious.org/albanianfloodingcrisiscamp

and putting the map data on archive.org. We can host the layers there and
then have the map servers download the data when needed by ftp. that would
allow for someone to setup a mapserver immediatly and on the fly.

I think that would be a worthly project for a bit of scripting.
