I get the feeling that on a mapnik list you'll get more people who care about how mapnik renders things. But maybe I'm wrong about that. If so, hopefully you can at least keep the mapnik-specific discussion in a separate thread, for those of us who couldn't care less about mapnik. (I also think the mapnik-specific discussion would benefit from people who understand what mapnik is capable of, and how difficult it would be to implement various suggestions, regardless of whether or not the people with that expertise care about the US.) _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
