Thanks Skywave, I didn't realize it was that simple to import some KMLs in
OpenLayer with crschmidt script :)

I've added versions for World( day, hour and minute changes) and France
(minutes changes) for now:
 (http://www.fxfoo.com/osm/kml/):

http://www.fxfoo.com/osm/kml/web-osm-france-day-latest-v0.html
http://www.fxfoo.com/osm/kml/web-osm-world-day-latest-v0-openlayers.html
http://www.fxfoo.com/osm/kml/web-osm-world-hour-latest-v0-openlayers.html
http://www.fxfoo.com/osm/kml/web-osm-world-minute-latest-v1-openlayers.html

The version2 kml (with the colored lines) also works (I'll add them a little
latter).
I'll also add some informations about the file and part of the summary stats
(number of nodes, users, etc)

I'm impressed by OpenLayers, I think I'm going to also use it also to
geolocate my pictures in GPicSync:

Thanks!
