To be honest, as the last comment there says, to progress that I think 
it needs someone to contribute some code - take a copy of the 
repository, set up a rendering stack using it (probably just Kosmtik 
would work - see e.g. 
https://ircama.github.io/osm-carto-tutorials/kosmtik-ubuntu-setup/ ) 
make the changes to render stiles etc., test it, and offer that 
contribution back.  See also 
https://switch2osm.org/manually-building-a-tile-server-16-04-2-lts/ .

I believe that the OSM Carto people are keen to see new contributors - 
see https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/2291 for 
example.

If anyone wants is trying to do the above and gets stuck, then I'm sure 
that people will be willing to help - either here, on github, or on IRC 
and elsewhere.

Best Regards,

Andy
