Thanks.

It shouldn't be long (hopefully not more than a week) before the rest of 
Alberta is imported.

I find the mapnik tiles aren't very good for looking at overall 
progress/what is available 
because they exclude all the little roads at low zoom levels.  Osmarender 
tiles tend to show  progress better but don't seem to up to date in areas.
