Hi, Jean Paul,

Rendering the streets (turning raw OSM data into images you can pan and zoom) 
needs quite a lot of computing power.

In order for your data to show up at all zoom levels, you just have to be 
patient. (Or donate lots of money to the OSM Foundation so we can set up a 
bigger rendering farm :-P )



I do miss the good ol' times (2007), when we all waited for wednesday night 
for our data to show up....


Cheers,
