That fonts thing is weird - I fixed that 6 months ago, but it's
unfixed itself in the meantime and I didn't notice. It's now fixed
again, and you can see it already at
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=34.88&lon=127.89&zoom=6&layers=00B0FTF
It'll take a week for all the old tiles to be refreshed.

As for the missing SRTM data - there's a few places missing, but very
few. Other than that, I'm not sure what you mean by "coverage", since
the whole world has been available on the cycle map for the last 16
months, it's just that the server is very busy and doesn't always
manage to render out-of-the-way places as quickly as I'd want.

Cheers,
Andy

PS: The cycle map is run by me as a hobby; it's not a CloudMade
service, they just sponsor the server.
