With "grab that data from the official OSM database", do you mean the
question of how to scale across multiple servers and whether to couple
those servers or operate them entirely independently and do the load
balancing on the front end? Or are there other issues still open? If
there are problems or missing features with osm2pgsql and mod_tile /
renderd there is a chance I would be able to fix and incorporate them.
