[OSM-talk] Enhanced version of "OSM Administrative Boundary Map" at OpenMapSurfer.uni-hd.de

[Maxim Rylov]

Hello Pavel!

Thank you for your suggestion. We will try to take it into account. The 
current version of styles is not completed yet and has a lot of faults. 
Later we are going to improve styling and work on better label placement 
capabilities as well.

Best regards,
Max
