No subject

work how it's supposed to.  I've certainly had trouble rendering
coastlines.  One area I mapped over two weeks ago shows up pretty well in
Osmarender, but is completely absent from Mapnik still.

I wish I could find more information on how exactly the renderers work.  For
example what tags are currently recognized, how they are rendered, and when
updates have been made to recognize new tags or change the rendering
behavior of old ones.  Does anyone know of such a release note type of page
for the renderers?

I&#39;ve been working on the OSM Caribbean fieldwork project<br>
(<a href="http://www.pledgebank.com/osmfieldwork" target="_blank">http://www.pledgebank.com/osmfieldwork</a>), and I noticed that a few of<br>
the islands (notably Barbados and Antigua) are rendered without<br>
coastlines in Mapnik. I check the coastlines, and they are going the<br>
right way around, and form a closed loop. The Osmarender output<br>
doesn&#39;t have this problem. Does anyone know what&#39;s going on?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
