For today's San Francisco SOTM Sprint, I'm writing to propose a design effort to bring together legends. The goal is to inspect each major map and build a legend, then combine those legends into a big cheat sheet. Then, inspect each editor and list the features it has presets for.
The design effort would likely create an XML schema to represent the legend/presets for a particular design/editor. One future benefit is a mapper who's mapped a particular feature (say, cell phone towers) can see which map their results will go it. It could reduce pressure to make Mapnik "do everything". It is also a good sprinty topic, in that it needs someone familiar with each target codebase. Game on?
