Sounds really good. There are three potential issues, I think. One is that Potlatch calls its API via relative URLs rather than absolute URLs. This could be fixed by an alternate build (the compile script already supports different URLs, for local testing), or even by adding support to pass the URLs in through JavaScript, which would be trivial. The second is that usually Potlatch authenticates by the Rails site token (which obviously you won't have), rather than by username & password. However, there is support in there for supplying "username+password" (i.e. +-separated) instead of a token. I added this yonks ago for Nick Whitelegg, but to the best of my knowledge it's never been used; it should work. The third is that some background layers _may_ be sniffy if their crossdomain.xml only permits connections from openstreetmap.org, i.e. not openstreetmap.de. In reality most probably permit connections from all, and the Yahoo imagery will work anyway. cheers Richard _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
