I've made a fudgetastic proxy script. This URL works for Pedang mapping in Potlatch (and similar for old JOSM versions)

It's not pretty. It's not efficient. But it works

Ah that's why it hasn't been working for me lately. Gah! stupid TMS coordinates! Well I can update the task description to say it doesn't work in Potlatch or older versions of JOSM if that's the best thing to do but... seems kinda lame.
Isn't it a simple fix to re-number all the tiles to flip the world the other way up?
So we could either...
* Do this on the current server by generating the tiles differently the first place
* Do this on the current server by running some little 'flip the world' script to rename the files
* wget the files onto another server and play around with such little scripts there.
* Make a 'flip the world' proxying script
