[OSM-talk] timed access restrictions and Mapnik

Hi all,

We recently had a bridge temporarily removed for the SAIL 2010 event
in Amsterdam[1].
I tagged it access=no with date_on and date_off time restriction tags
as suggested on http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access, hoping
it would be picked up by Mapnik as well.
It turns out it is not and the road is still rendered as a no access
road even though the date_off is over a week ago. This discourages
tagging temporary access restrictions - could we make it so that it
does take date_on and date_off into account?
