Why not rendering them as soon as possible? mod_tile[1] will help you with
this.
Yes, interesting software. That would mean to render on the fly. I am not sure
if my weak virtual server would cope with the task doing both at the same time,
rendering tiles and serving tiles.
2.: If a tile gets older than 100 days, it shall be rendered regardless of the
time it has been displayed last.
Tirex[2] (a replacement of the renderd which ships with mod_tile) might
help you with this.
I will look into this, thanks!
Meanwhile, I'm thinking about aging the tiles using the means of the operating
system. Thus, the rendering process could pick all the old tile image files at
night and start their rerendering. At the moment, I am not completely sure
which way to go but I will post the result as soon as I have a solution.
