It looks pug ugly! Not a lot more that I can say than that, but I'll try. It performs an interesting social function on the Osmarender layer. But a large part of the art of cartography is "decluttering" - conveying the maximum information with the minimum crowding. Having repeated "(c) LINZ" (or whatever) tags on every road effectively reduces the amount of other information you can convey, and the attractiveness of the map. cheers Richard _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
