 Slightly off-topic, the recently added low-zoom country map display
 (mapnik) apparently pulls data from outside OSM database.  I spotted a
 typo (or what I think is a typo) and wanted to correct it and found
 that the name with a typo was nowhere in the database.  I think the
 renderer should only pull data from sources that we can fix.  Where
 does the data come from?

 That's not the case. I'd be rather that someone spotted and fixed the
 typo reight before you.

It would have rerendered the names about three times by now.  Also,
what will explain that the names are correct with zoom levels 6 and
up, while 1-5 display the non-existent names?  Where does the data
come from?

Cheers
