Maperitive Readme
-----------------

Maperitive is a desktop aplication for interactive mapping using OpenStreetMap data and other sources.

NOTE: this is a radioactive-preview-alpha version of Maperitive. While it will probably not burn your computer
or kill your pets, it is highly undocumented and almost certainly full of bugs. Also, it's not very user-friendly.
Keep in mind that a lot of things will probably change (and hopefully improve) in the near future.

You can submit bugs, annoyances, suggestions and praises via mail to support@maperitive.net
There is also an automatic bug reporting function in Maperitive.

And thanks for being brave and trying it out!
