Something like this: 1) Install postgresql and postgis. 2) Create a postgis database 3) Grab an OSM file for the area you care about 4) Run osm2pgsql your-osm-file.osm 5) Start building mapnik rules to match the relations I'm a data monkey, too, but I know that my data's only good when I can get people see it.
