Hi again,

Just a couple of small updates about this project:

* I made some major changes to the user interface - there is no popups
anymore as they obscured geometry and especially made the "show previous
geometry" function useless in some cases as the popup was in the way.
Opinions are welcome as always. For me personally the sidebar feels a
little bit crowded after the changes so it would be nice if someone had
an idea how to preserve the amount of information available and still
have a simple and clear user interface.

* The database now has tiles for over 3 million changesets so things are
slowing down especially at low zoom levels. Because of this I will
probably soon remove tiles from zoom levels <= 10 or something like
that. Queries for those levels run sometimes for several minutes so it's
only a waste of server processing power to try and display them. And
also the disk space is running very low on two 500GB SSDs on the server
and I would rather remove useless tiles than resort to moving data to
the spinning drive :-)

Couple of things:

* Zoom levels >= 14 should be usable. On lower zoom levels it
sometimes takes a lot of time to show history. Also I don't have
clear idea yet what to really show on the lower zoom levels - what
would be useful - so suggestions are welcome.

* I'm actively working on this instance so don't be surprised when
something breaks or there is no data at all etc. - it's a beta
version :-)

* You can click on nodes/ways in the map to get more details about
changes :-)
