</span>I would like to thank everyone for their feedback, either here or on<br>
Github. The new style has been accepted with some improvements, and is<br>
about to be deployed.<br>
<br>
We have changed some aspects of the rendering as the result of your<br>
suggestions. In particular, we made the buildings a bit darker on zoom<br>
levels up to zoom 14, and we shifted the colour to colour that is more<br>
gray rather than brownish.<br>
<br>
There are still a couple of minor issues of which we are aware, such<br>
as the rendering of buildings on top of barracks. We will keep working<br>
on solving these.<br>
<br>
We also haven't taken a definite decision on whether to render<br>
churches darker or not. It is clear that opinions diverge on this<br>
topic. We might reconsider the decision to render churches darker in<br>
the future.<br>
