Frederik is working on that. We had some problems with osmarender4
incompatibilities, but I think we solved them all now. But the styles
have to be re-done first.

We are planning to first use styles which are very similar to the
osmarender3 styles so that we are mostly compatible. This is important
because even if everybody moved over to osmarender4, there are lots of
old tiles out there. Ideally, once it has been proven that osmarender4
works for tiles at home, everybody should switch over. Osmarender4 renders
many thing much much better.
