[OSM-talk] Decision for slippy map

[Nick Black]

Guys, please get seme perspective.  OpenStreetMap isnt Artem and
Steve.  Community mapping doesnt end with collecting GPS traces.
Instead of demanding that your area is rendered, why don't you render
them yourselves?  I know mapnik can be challenging to install, but its
not *that* difficuilt.  I will certainly respond more positively to
requests for help with setting up mapnik and rendering than I will to
demands for your arae to be rednered.

Please take some responsibility and at least *try* to help yourselves.
 Bug the list with questions about how to use Mapnik and create tiles
.  I will personally take responsibility for writing up some
documentation on Mapnik - but like the rest of us, I have other things
to do too.
