Klokan,<br>
Thanks for your docs for MapTiler.<br>
I've reviewed and included my comments in the text below. (They were
fairly minor, adjusting a couple of words here and there).<br>
Can you please review, (especially the first line) and confirm that I
haven't incorrectly changed the meaning anywhere.<br>

<p>MapTiler is a desktop application for the creation of map tiles for
rapid raster map publishing. Geodata is transformed to tiles compatible
with Google Maps and Earth - ready for publishing via direct upload to
any webserver or a cloud storage (such as Amazon S3).</p>
<p>No extensive configuration on the server side is necessary, any
simple file hosting is fine. Dynamic interaction such as panning and
zooming, overlay of markers and vector data is provided by powerfuil
browser functionality.</p>
<p>The application directly generates a ready to use simple viewer
based on OpenLayers and Google Maps API and can be easily customized.</p>
<p>MapTiler is a multi-platform desktop application. Installers are
available for Windows, Mac OS X and packages for linux (Debian/Ubuntu).</p>
