[OSM-talk] New tile design for OSM, and up-to-date renders for the SF Bay Area

[Michal Migurski]

Thanks!

I'm very, very happy with S3's cost and transfer rates. I think their  
response times could be a bit better, especially for cases like this  
with large numbers of tiny files, but it's been a reasonable tradeoff.  
I'm excited about the recently-announced CDN features as a way to  
potentially address this.
