I would vote for setting up a new renderer for this since it is a specific maptype, for small regions on the globe. The main OSM render server is already pretty heavilly loaded. Perhaps the dutch OSM chapter can advice since they have done a couple of succesfull spin-off's from the main map like the: "Carnaval-kaart" and the "Fryske-kaart"?
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely cheer for a Piste Map! But I think it's demands will differ from the general map. For instance; I think that a detailed hightfield would also be something that might be a requirement for the near future. And I would also try to colorize the main map for it to show other detail. Some suggestions: - Set up a new render server - Ask the people at OSM if the domain-name skimap.openstreetmap.org can point to this server - Set up color and symbology schemas and start rendering - Add this maptype to all the openlayers clients around that want to show ski-maps. Or am I being rude?
