Yes we fixed the issue about scale calculation yesterday, to comply with 
the calculation you've specified in a previous email. We were 
calculating the scale in a more precise way, on the ellipsoid in fact. I 
also fixed some styling rule differences. So the WMS output should now 
be really similar.

For our contour label, they are rendered at last by our renderer, 
meaning on top of every polygon or line layer for example. The goal is 
to have a nice map with labels displayed even if there are lots of data. 
Between label priorities we use our own algorithm.

Cheers,
