Just to let people know, I've reloaded the server as part of fixing
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T160781 and it's now running again.

As part of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T153282 a new style for
Wikimedia maps is being developed, and I've loaded up the whole planet
on one of my test servers as a test and demo.
The demo is available at http://legolas.paulnorman.ca:6789/, and
through "Compare" on the right-hand side of the interface you can
compare it with the current Wikimedia style, OpenStreetMap Carto, and
lots of others. Some other things to be aware of when comparing are
- The map is displayed with Kosmtik, a design tool with minimal
caching, and it might be restarted while I'm working on it
- Even though the server is faster than production, it may appear
slower because it doesn't have everything cached
- The OSM data on the server is normally within a day of the latest data
- Some roads are missing with https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T160781
Some of the more noticeable style changes are
- Road colours are different, helping view the overall layout of the city
- There are fewer cases of subtly different shades of green.
- Bridges and multi-level road constructions are now handled properly,
which should make some areas easier to figure out
Feedback is welcome, either through email, phab tickets, or by IRC in
#wikimedia-interactive on freenode.
