Once we have some current z8 tiles then zooms below 8 can be generated using lowzoom.pl which you will find under the tools dir if you already have [EMAIL PROTECTED] This script basically just pulls the z8 tiles, stitches them together and scales them which is why you need to do the z8 tiles first. The comments on irc suggested this was required for presentation to UN by Monday, anyone else up for some lowzoom rendering?
