Introduction
During the FOSS4G2011 conference in Denver, there will be conference rooms available for people to hold Breakout Sessions (aka Birds-of-a-Feather).

- Proposed Topics
- standardised sqlite schema for tile caches

- Tile merging (i.e. equivalent of WMS LAYERS=baselayer,overlaylayer)
- TMS multiple grids per tileset
- WMTS multiple url endpoints (eg tile1.domain.tld, tile2.domain.tld...): is this still needed now that browsers allow many more connections per server?
