Yes, I'd second that. Osmarender is stupidly impressive and the one part of OSM that's currently producing n00b-friendly output.

Having learnt a little bit by osmosis about how the SLD, Styled Layer
Description standard works (still reluctant to plough through the
OGC specification wordmire and finding the geotools API/tutorial docs
a lot easier on the eyes - cf http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/Styles )
There's a close fit between Osmarender and SLD, to the extent that
one could be XLST transformable into the other. Which would rock.

I definitely agree that would rock. SLD is a pretty good standard, and does more or less the same thing as osmarender - defines rules for how to style content. We have another decent introduction in the GeoServer docs: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDOC/SLD+Intro+Tutorial

best regards,
