[Tilecache] Active development of tilecache

+1 on this. No new development, but I'd love to have a reference github repository to send little fixes, like Pillow support, etc.

Best,
Manel

Asunto: [Tilecache] Active development of tilecache

Dear List,

The company that I work for is an active user of tilecache and have made a minor enhancement to the code that we'd really like an opportunity to contribute back to the core. However from the main website the development status isn't clear, and there isn't an obvious way to contribute. A quick look on github shows a number of forks of the software, all of which are presumably diverging from the core in subtle ways. Furthermore, there are some bits on the main tilecache website that are broken (the demo, the source browser link, the bug tracker, anything that references the old labs.metacarta vmap tiles).

So, I have a couple of questions:
1) How can we contribute the one small enhancement that we have made back to the current source?
2) Could the current source be moved to github? (We used git-svn to create our local repository and it seemed to work very well)
3) Can we fix the broken bits of the website?

I quite understand the notion that tilecache doesn't need any serious improvement as it does what it set out to do, and in the main does it extremely well, but it would be nice if it was possible to contribute a little more easily and ensure that people don't think the project is abandoned.

Thanks

Jo
