I've run some local playtests, and I've been working on updating the site with the wiki for characters, places, etc. I think a map would work very well for that, so I've been working with Tilemill to try to produce that. Unfortunately, I don't know much about GIS, so I've been trying to teach myself that on evenings and weekends, while also dealing with things like getting a new job and looking for a new place to live. So, I could actually really use some help here: if you know how to turn this raster image into a shapefile with a mercator projection, I'd be much closer to having the map, and much closer to having the site. Which would be very exciting, because I have a lot of things I'd like to do with it, but they all depend on getting this done first, and this is the one part that I really don't know how to do.

Jason is starting a new job
Jason is starting a new job right now, so he hasn't had time to work on this. There are still us others here though.
