I believe it's actually debated what language name= should be in, possibly settling on International English or at least osm.org is inteded to display international names. Anyway, I think it's good to encourage lots of different language maps. Someone already made a version of OSM displaying Welsh names from name:cy (and falling back on name). To set up your own render and online-map, there are lots of details from this page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Develop If you just want an easy way to set up a very custom map (you'll need to write all the styles from a very basic style sheet) then look at this windows program: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Kosmos -- Gregory [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.livingwithdragons.com
