Wonderful.

I am trying to see how far I can get with generating some images on 
willow then. osm-render seems to require the pthyon cairo module that it 
can't find though. generate_image.py[1] looks like it works better, but 
gives me some errors not liking the style sheet. Not sure where that 
comes from yet, but I'll figure it out :-)

One more thing that I currently noticed though is that the coastlines 
used with mapnik are not stored in the postgis database but instead uses 
a separate set of shapfiles[2]. As these are 500Mb in size, it brought 
me over my quota limit. Is there a data directory where these could be 
put so that everyone can access them?

Thanks,

Kai
