First of all, Lambertus, you are the MAN! This is really great. My first exposure to OSM was 'Map Kibera.' I'm in Nairobi and those guys are very cool folks. The OSM maps have come in handy for the piki (motorcycle) rides into the bush. We are mapping and addition as much as we can. As we learn this process.

Second, I am a Mac user. Sorry to all the massive amounts of PC guys here, but it's just the plan truth. It is quite difficult to find good resources for grassroots, code rich, stuff. So, I ask you on behalf of my fellow Mac brethren, to once again consider, at the very least, providing a download for the world wide map, in all the formats you put out.

Your service is incredibly unique. Just today, I was helping a friend use your map to just download the tiles he needed for a European tour. Works perfectly for his needs! But you are the only guy putting out the Mac friendly files who has the whole world. I really need the whole world and you are the only guy with it. I tried clicking 99% of the tiles, but it failed and said the URL was to long. I read that a long time ago you said that any request with at least 70% of the tiles would shoot out a pre-combined tile package. I didn't get that 🙁
