Hi Michael,
I am just having a go at getting your Tile Data Server working (I think it
is 'cover' from https://github.com/mdaines/cover? - your GSoC wiki page
does not link to the repository though!).

Unfortunately, I do not speak Ruby, so am struggling a bit.......
First script/render complained about not being able to find 'rubygems',
then there seem to be a lot of dependency issues.

Do you have a list of the dependencies written down somewhere please?
 I'll go and work out how to install them, but it would be useful if you
could include a simple 'getting started' set of instructions.

Regards


Graham.
