Here are a few examples:

http://autogas-network.co.uk/
http://mapa.guadalajara.gob.mx/basura
http://vivenda.hercesa.ro/
https://www.visitarnhem.com/routes/wandelroutes

The reminder tiles is in available english and french:

https://tilecache.openstreetmap.fr/attribution-en.png
https://tilecache.openstreetmap.fr/attribution-fr.png

I mix both at different locations on the maps.

Automatic attribution checking for one day of log files now takes around 
20 minutes.

I'll clean the nginx config file and share it.
