Congratulation, that's a great work !

did you manage to find a way to provide localization for all languages
within the vector tiles ?


cheers,

Sadly not yet -- mapnik needs to be substantially changed to pass through
the hstore. Looking for a kind hardcore c++ soul ))

Re: [OSM-dev] Announcing the launch of OSM Maps for Wikipedia

[Yuri Astrakhan]

Frederik, there are over 7000 languages on the planet - we could either
support them all (best case), or make a small subset (e.g. ~10 primary
ones).

Ideally, when generating tiles, we would want to store all languages in a
single tile - this way we can decide what language(s) to use at the very
last moment - when rendering the tile, possibly even on the client (webgl).
Since most places have very few different names, this will be a tiny vtile
size increase, but will be a massive help with making maps multilingual.

Make a view against the hstore table and let that view have as many
columns as there are name:xx tags ;)
