Hi,
"by popular demand" ;)

Please make sure to read the README file there.
Regarding boundaries, I prefer geographical over political grouping. The
Azores are part of the Europe extract but they are not part of the
Portugal extract; likewise, British/French/Dutch overseas territories
are not included in the extract of the mother country and usually not
even in the Europe extract. There are no hard and fast rules but I
figured that if someone took the France extract and computed tiles for
everything in that bounding box, they should not have a nasty surprise
because I threw in Guadeloupe ;)
Bye
Frederik
