I haven't talked yet with either the OSMF or any admins about this, but that is on my todo list for next year. Because it uses very different software (Mapquest Render Stack instead of mod_tile/renderd) it is not so easy to switch. There several options how we can get the multilingual map into production and numerous operational issues that need to be ironed out. So this will need some time. But we are working on it. > I think this first map of the world with that features should be > promoted to the Press Agencies because this is understandable for > everyone. I agree that once we have this in production, we should "market" this.
