</div>This has already been discussed in OpenstreetMap Talk-fr. A guy from<br>
bearstech (Rodolphe Quideville) made a mirror for France and some<br>
cities, here :<br>

I suggest you to ask him for adding the cities/countries you need (give<br>
him x_min x_max... as in info*.php).<br>

</blockquote><div>This is something OSM should get into. I would like to get all the kinds of things Cloudmade offer (navit? osm/xml?) for all of Australia but only for my city. Does OSM currently have a way of working out the boundary-box of a "city"? If not, I'd certainly help make boxes if there was a web interface for sending them in. Either way, someone (OSM? Openmoko community?) could automatically offer zip/tar/tbz files of all the tiles needed in the correct TangoGPS structure.<br>
