[Live-demo] Review of MapTiler Overview docs

[Cameron Shorter]

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

    Map Publishing¶ <cid:part2.08050507.00010701 at lisasoft.com>

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).

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.

The application directly generates a ready to use simple viewer based on 
OpenLayers and Google Maps API and can be easily customized.

MapTiler is a multi-platform desktop application. Installers are 
available for Windows, Mac OS X and packages for linux (Debian/Ubuntu).
