Hmm, looking at the tahngo map at zoom level 6, doesn't look like it is 
working quite like intended yet? Although I guess the low-zoom stitching 
it self works fine, it doesn't seem to be using the "correct" data. 
There seem to be two problems:

1) It is using the tile layer rather than the captionless layer for 
stitching and isn't superimposing the caption layer on top

2) There are a lot of unknown tiles on the map. It mostly looks like 
missing blankness lookups?

Are both of these problems just temporary issues until the tile 
conversion has run to completeness? In that case, do you have a rough 
estimate of when the lowzoom map will look as nice again as the old one, 
that thanks to the great effort over the last few weeks has become quite 
pretty.

Would it perhaps make sense to wait with the server side lowzoom a bit 
longer until all / more of the z12 data is available to the new server?

Altogether, it seems like a good idea to move this serverside though to 
save some download/ upload bandwidth, so good work
