In an effort to deal with the high number of requests to VicFlora we have
moved the maps into a new subdomain. If the maps do not work, it might be
that your browser is still trying to connect to the old map server.
Clearing the browser's cache should clear that up. We hope that this
change, together with other changes we made in the last few weeks, will
bring about a positive change in user experience for VicFlora. Thanks to
all our users for hanging in there.
