include into en.wp
50% of the Wikipedia user use english Wikipedia, so it would be a good way to grow.
 * Who we need to ask?
 * Will our performance ok?

include into mobil.wp
Test the map on more mobil platforms.

multilingual maps
see CPB-Antrag (german)

highlighting OSM Objects in the map
Using Wikipedia-Tags in OSM to highlight the matching objects for the article in the map of the article.

Working on it together with User:master.

optimize POIs for wikipedia lists
More and more lists in Wikipedia are created with geocoordinates, like WikiLovesMonuments results. It would be nice to show on the map the right image for each map. This is only possible with parsing the wikipedia-pages (I missing Wikidata).

Bring the code to SVN
Yes it is still on my list. It would make it easier for other to work on the script.

hillshading

 * Make it worldwide.
 * Solve the problem with tons of small files in a normal filesystem.
 * Other free projects should be able to re-use this tiles.

Satellite images
Layer like that from Landsat would be nice additional feature. But perhaps later, because quality is not so fine and need a lot of storage.

Vector Rendering
Would be nice.

Check the Cloud of the Foundation
Starting with simple static things like hillshading tiles.

Second Server
A second server on toolserver cluster would be nice to seperate productive system and test system.
