Hi,

it seems to me that the demo server doesn't work? Neither with the actual
Chrome or Firefox.

Regards,
Archer

> Please note that only selected regions have been loaded into the demo
> server.

> As can be seen, the new building colour is much lighter. This should
> make the map more pleasant to the eye, as well as make it easier to
> see the road network in areas with many buildings.

> Please let us know what you think of the new rendering, either on
