Hi all,

I've been using and making small contributions to MapProxy for almost
10 years now.

At Astun Technology we use MapProxy to provide national tile and WMS
services mainly serving Ordnance Survey GB data to thousands of users. We
also regularly use MapProxy in client projects either directly
or indirectly (dynamic tile cache during dev/ static cache in production).

Along with some minor bug fixes I've been involved in implementing the
decorate image API to allow response images to be updated on the fly and I
made a start on the S3 backend :-)

Huge thank you to Oliver and the team at Omniscale for their considerable
effort over the years.

I'm looking forward to seeing MapProxy continue to evolve.

Kind regards,

Matt.
