I think we can manage this :-) I would suggest just using one of the
existing map tiles such as toner as a starting point.

Plenty to keep us going post sotm!!

Hi Mark

This sounds an interesting project. There are any number of vector maps of
OSM - just do a google search and you'll come up with a large variety. You
might like to investigate TileMill and MapBox which is what I used to
produce my heritage
map<http://a.tiles.mapbox.com/v3/brianboru.map-ag576a5p.html#13/52.4751/-1.8872>of
the west midlands. There's lots of expertise locally so feel free to
ask
anything and we can either help or know someone who can.
