Hi
I'm modifying a local copy of Osmarender to tweak the map output for my own

order in the osm-map-features-z*.xml files. Moving the rule down in the

This doesn't strictly belong here, but when you open Potlatch, you can

To augment continuous audio synchronized with waypoints that I mailed
about earlier this week, I have now also added the facility to work with
continuous audio recordings on tracks where you don't have or don't want
to use explicit GPS waypoints. This will be in tomorrow's JOSM build.

The use of the "r" key to copy last-selected-way tags behave strangely.
If you select a way, select another one, press r, select another one,

Exactly - enter confirms the edit and escape cancels it. That is

Geonames.org just announced that "Spot", a satellite image provider will
give them their high resolution sat images to derive streets etc. from.

That would be a great addition for OSM, too!

For mapnik rendering I was thinking of moving tram and light_rail to a
new rendering layer which would be placed just after roads and thus draw
them after roads - which is probably the norm.

Of course, but until now I thought it was our common goal to make it

Seems like it.
One big German printer is www.laser-line.de and their web site,
although not availalbe in English, should be easy to navigate for
you. In the "Specials" dropdown on the top right,
Mapnik layer is now displaying different styles for all admin_level variants
that are on the wiki. If you are tagging (or have already) with boundary=admin
please also add the appropriate admin_level tags for your country.
