Tanveer, Can you give an example place where you see this behavior?
I suspect that two different objects are being rendered. Mapnik currently renders whatever is in the default "name" tag, rather than "name:en" or "name:hi". Ideally, the labels would be localised per user. Requires a good deal of work .. a nice meaty project! I can sketch out some of the ideas around this if anyone is interested. I know there's been discussion and some action around a local OSM India server. This would give full control, and it could be possible to render an English only tile set, a Hindu only tile set, etc. -Mikel ________________________________ From: Tanveer Singh <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, April 24, 2009 12:35:21 PM Subject: [Talk-in] Names of cities in some local language Hi, I saw that in OSM the names of cities at lower zoom levels appear in some local language(I think its hindi). Only on zooming in english name is visible. Is there a way to turn of this stuff and see only English names. Infact non hindi areas also show up in hindi. Some language nazi at work here?
