Re: [Talk-GB] Wish LIst for Mapnik Stylesheet (overmapping of private features)
I would hope that whoever might fix the bugs in the rendering stylesheet would start with those rather than discard all of them and start with a new bug list on github. That is step 3 on the roadmap described on the openstreetmap-carto repo: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto#tackle-the-backlog-v3x I am appreciate that the patches welcome response is not tremendously positive, but, culling issues from trac and transferring them over to the github issue tracker would be a quick and easy way to help getting the issues you care about fixed.

Copying issues over to github does not help get them fixed. I know there are issues in trac, and I'll get to them later, since new features are not the current priority. If people want to help, without writing any stylesheets, then at least curating the tickets on trac would help. The very first on on the list (#4436) has got nothing to do with the stylesheets, for example.

[Talk-GB] Wish LIst for Mapnik Stylesheet (overmapping of private features)
Is there a mechanism for getting requests onto the wish list for the Open Street Map Mapnk style sheets? The particular issue is that now that people can trace quite small features, some areas are getting overloaded with private foot paths and private car parks (not to mention alleys and driveways), particularly where apartment blocks are involved. These make it difficult to find public ones and pollute the landuse colouring. I've added a comment to the access Wiki page, but comments on wiki pages don't seem to get looked at. What I'd like to do is to get onto the wish list that private features like this should require a higher zoom level, before they render, than equivalent public ones. (A thin, dotted footpath can be difficult to spot in a sea of dashed ping lines. (A secondary problem is that people map these all with no access restriction, or name them Private, but that can be fixed in the source data without destroying information - the only problem is that it needs verifying on the ground, whereas they can map, particularly car parks, from aerial imagery.) ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
