IMHO there is no connection between the port to a different style sheet language and the decision which zoom level gets rendered. The current XML would render sufficiently well when you remove the minscale_zoom=18 filters. If "convincingly" implies different font-sizes and styles, line widths etc. for the step from 18 to 19, this is something that could be fixed in later iterations. > Beyond that, it'll take some investigation into what extra hardware burden > z19 will impose. Perhaps you could help by running some tests into that? Space requirements depend mostly on the actual usage (how many of them would be created). I guess it wouldn't make sense to prerender them and rendering on the fly seems to work quite well as there is much less data than even in zoom 18 which already renders fast. On data changes in the area they could be dropped instead of putting them into a dirty queue. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
