[Talk-us] OpenStreetMap Americana - Announcing a new American map style and call for collaborators!

[Greg Troxel]

Can you explain if it's possible for someone to stand up an instance of
this in a 100% open source way?   Looking at

  https://github.com/ZeLonewolf/openstreetmap-americana

I'm unclear on if maptiler is just a handy service to turn HTTP GET into
pbf and there is open source code but you'd need a really big server for
nationwide, or if there's some special sauce in there that makes this
not doable.

For example, if I wanted to run an instance that was sort of like this,
but with a changed style, and only cover a 20km x 20 km area, is that
relatively straigthforward (for a nerd used to severs) with only Free
Software?

I think the text says that being able to do this without the proprietary
cloud service is the plan, but it would be nice to say that more loudly
if so, and have a way to do it for small areas.
