Hi Daniel

Nice.
Many thanks for your work!
How can I help implementing rendering of castles (forts, ruins,
manors, palaces)?

> Dear all,
>
> Today, v4.9.0 of the openstreetmap-carto stylesheet (the default
> stylesheet on the OSM website) has been released. Once changes are
> deployed on the openstreetmap.org it will take couple of days before all
> tiles show the new rendering.
>
> Changes include
>
> Major changes
> - A bug where closed ways with natural=cliff or natural=tree_row were
> not rendering has been fixed. This required fixing a transform bug. The
> fix will apply to all objects when they are created in OSM, but there is
> no migration for existing databases. Deployments will have to decide if
> the effects are serious enough to require them to reload the database.
>
> Changes
> - Adding place=square name rendering
> - Adding rendering for different types of towers and masts
> - Making gardens to use grass color with plant nursery pattern
> - Adding rendering for intermittent water bodies
> - Give oceans outline and simplify shapefiles on z0-7
> - Simplify (generalize) admin borders
> - Move natural=grassland and landuse=meadow earlier
> - Start rendering aerialway name
> - Adding icons for amenity=bbq, amenity=shower, leisure=sauna and
> advertising=column
> - Adding special icons for shop=dairy, shop=medical_supply and shop=music
> - Move amenity=toilets to higher zoom levels
> - Fixing some SVG icons artifacts
> - Make military=danger_area font dark pink and slanted
> - Changing rendering for construction=steps to distinguish it from roads
> - Changing label colour of private parking
> - Small documentation and code fixes
>
> Thanks to all the contributors for this release, including james2432,
