There are many reasons why you might want to use a non-imagery background (or overlay which essentially all have gone too), for example large scale orientation or highlighting specific features, editing in areas without useful areial imagery and so on. Simon Yes, indeed. So, could we have our background layers back, please? ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
