And I'd encourage you (Woll, that is) to have a look at the mapnik style rules file. Whilst long and moderately complex, I can see you're interested in the problem enough that it's worth your while seeing how it works rather than trying to reverse-engineer the end result. http://trac.openstreetmap.org/browser/applications/rendering/mapnik/osm.xml So you can see in the section starting with <Style name="city"> That there are four rules for showing city names, and the lowest one also has a minimum scale. So at a given zoom level, city names stop showing up. The min scale of 20000 equates to it showing on zoom 14 but not 15.
