Hi everyone, I played around with the mappaint elemstyles.xml file to add styles for ski pistes. A rule likes like this: rule condition k=piste:difficulty v=easy line width=3 colour=#FF scale_min1/scale_min scale_max10/scale_max /rule The piste now has the right color, but

I would vote for setting up a new renderer for this since it is a specific maptype, for small regions on the globe. The main OSM render server is already pretty heavilly loaded. Perhaps the dutch OSM chapter can advice since they have done a couple of succesfull spin-off's from the main

The lifts are there the whole year, the pistes aren't. Maybe the piste rendering would just be a light shading, with footways, etc. drawn on top? We try to make the pists als light as possible. At the moment we have an opacity of about 0.8 and light colors. Just have a look at

You also have to realise just how many tags there are. On nodes and ways there are close to 1 billion tags, comprising of about 50 million distinct key-value pairs (this was the last time I counted which was a while back). So while you'd save on space, the table join to get the tags

Well, you have a way to searcg for them and to download, correct and upload them. Why are you waiting for an API-change? You can start right now. The only reason not doing it atm is a lack of a tool doing this easy. A change on the api as i proposed, would be a verry good reason correcting

I'm a frequent user of Perl and it has lots of merits, but I wouldn't want to base a high-performance module on it that reads data from Mysql and shifts it over to Apache. I haven't done the numbers on that but my gut feeling is that you'll be copying the data around a few times more in that
