Hi there,

The idea for the wiki page, is to provide a start page (for OSM users),
As a way to keep track of whats going on, so this is an 'unofficial version'
Once information is noted on the official website, i guess there is no
need to post it on the wiki page.

So it's the same thing for other applications like maperaitive, where
there is an external website.  So the wiki page just serves as a quick
reference, and users know to check the official page for the latest
updates.   So then extra tips & tricks that users find can be added to
the wiki, as the product is always under development.

So yes, i did also notice that the reference was not listed correctly
on the sautter.com map view.
http://sautter.com/map/?zoom=14&lat=48.77402&lon=-123.69374&layers=00000BTFFFTTFF
http://sautter.com

It appears that yahoo imagery was done correctly, as well as the
cyclemap, and NASA SRTM is also listed correctly.   Im not an open
layers programmer, so i have no idea how to fix it.   Hopefully this
can be changed, then the screen-view could also be changed to an
updated version, as the one i made was showing what the website can
do, and mapquest as a side-benifit.
Probably a screen view of the yahoo image / mapqest hybred would be
sufficient.  (Or removing the image would also be fine)

Cheers,
Sam
