This thread died some time ago, has any progress been made with mapnik or anything else that would easily allow at least custom shields for the main routes of a country? There is a lot of people that would love to see something more familiar and less bland show up on map tiles. The majority of non-OSMers expect maps to look a certain way and even Google is rendering custom highway shields differently for different countries. If we want to win the hearts and minds of non-mappers we need to fill certain expectations of what a regular map should look like. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
