a tutti sviluppatori: siamo riusciti in Germania di avere altri 3
server (traffico illimitato) tramite sponsoring. Se voi avete qualcosa
da offerire (qc. applicazione per quale cercate un posto, dati
derivati dalla OSM che volete mettere in rete (per esempio una
Garmin-map) o altre cose potete usare questi server: uno sara
utilizato per un rendering alternativo in stile europeo (~michelin,
arrancione invece dei colori inglesi che abbiamo adesso in mapnik, uno
sara disponibile come tools-server e uno come dev-server.

nel Wiki si trovano ulteriori informazioni:

più interessante per voi probabilmente questo:

(oppure chiedete a Frederik ;-) ).

ciao,

   the Berlin-based hosting provider STRATO AG is sponsoring three
servers for use by the OSM community. The sponsoring deal has been
signed between German FOSSGIS e.V. and STRATO. In return, STRATO get a
logo placement on openstreetmap.de.

The three servers (quad-core Opteron machines with 16 GB RAM and 2 TB
hard disks that cost EUR 200/month each if you order them from STRATO)
will be used as a tile server, a tools server (production environment
for interesting services) and a dev server respectively. There is no
traffic limitation, and STRATO has even offered to tune their network to
better accomodate us (apparently a tile server under load looks very
much like a DDOS to unsuspecting monitoring software).

We hope to offer some alternative map styles on the tile server
(possibly a classic central European "Michelin" style with yellow/orange
motorways, and also a subdued style that is well suited as a background
map), but the server could also take some load off tile.osm.org if that
is desired.

The dev server is open to anyone with an interesting idea as long as
they don't gobble up all resources.

While we do casually refer to these new servers as the "German" dev
server and the "German" tile server, they are open to all members of the
worldwide OSM community.

There's more on the Wiki:

All this is still very much work in progress (the tile server only has a
few Berlin tiles for testing, styles are not defined yet, database
replication still needs to be set up and so on).

A big thank you to STRATO for their support. I hope that over the coming
months, the community is going to make good use of these servers. The
FOSSGIS/OSM server admin team can be contacted at ad...@openstreetmap.de.

Bye
Frederik
