Yes, makes sense. >> Some names (e.g. of buildings or streets) >> rendered differently to weekly mapnik too. > > Positioning, or text?

Seems to be slightly different rules about which names are rendered. E.g. this area has no changes since last mapnik weekly (AFAIK): http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=53.79741&lon=-1.58727&zoom=17&layers=B000FFFF Switching between mapnik and your layer, names for buildings or pubs are rendered in one and not another. Same for some icons, e.g. cafe icon in one, the postoffice next door in another. Minor things, but you asked for feedback! cheers, LT _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
