Hello,

(and, if possible, for other languages.) In fact, what really needed is a tool (csv, database field, tag, bulk API, whatever) that will quickly return a name of object in a given language, even if it's absent in OSM data, integrated at least with osm2pgsql. (generation of our russian-only map took a couple of days, and we had to limit number of labels to finish it at all - keep in mind our map is limited to z10). Until then, people will keep adding name:xx to objects regardless of what anybody thinks of it, as it's the only realistic way to render multilingual map now. -- Darafei "Komяpa" Praliaskouski OSM BY Team - http://openstreetmap.by/ xmpp:m...@komzpa.net mailto:m...@komzpa.net
