The attribution feature requires that the Python Image Library is  
compiled with TrueType support. The binary builds for Windows that you  
get with easy_install are not consistent. PIL 1.1.7 for Python 2.6 is  
missing this support, 1.1.6 has it.

It is possible to install a fixed version with: easy_install PIL==1.1.6

0.8.2 will emit some errors if TrueType support is missing and will  
fall back to some default font.

Are you sure thats necessary? It works with `sqrt2` here.

The configuration template in 0.8.0 did contain a tile_size of [512,  
512] that led to unexpected results in TMS clients like OpenLayers. I  
changed that in 0.8.1.

It should work with relative paths. What you need to consider is that  
all path are relative to the proxy.yaml file, respectively to the  
default develop.ini/config.ini files when you start with paster.
