[OSM-talk] Names, split streets and relations

[Steve Chilton]

Mapnik has a way to resolve both cases.
If you lodge a Trac job with (UK) URL examples of both cases I will investigate for next week's style update (just submitted this week's).
 
Cheers
STEVE

	Indeed. My question is: can they? :-)

	Right, but that's precisely the problem. It writes it three times when I
	really only want it written once.
	
	(The opposite problem is the very long road which is a single way. The
	name should regularly repeat, but I don't think it does on either Mapnik
	or Osmarender.)
