[OSM-dev] OpenStreetMap Carto release v5.9.0

[Christoph Hormann]

Dear all,

Today, v5.9.0 of the OpenStreetMap Carto stylesheet (the default
stylesheet on the OSM website) has been released. Once changes are
deployed on openstreetmap.org it will take couple of days before
all tiles show the new rendering.

Changes include

* Adding rendering of shop=hearing_aids with a dedicated symbol
* Restoring rendering of name labels for natural=reef
* Adding rendering of lines with barrier=jersey_barrier
* Removing rendering of railway=preserved in favor of interpreting railway:preserved=yes on other railway=*
* Removing rendering of shop=jewellery as synonym for shop=jewelry
* Adding rendering of leisure=dance with a point symbol and label
* Interpretation of transport mode specific access tags on roads/paths

More details on these changes with sample pictures can be found on
