[OSM-talk] rendering of large rivers

[Ulf Mehlig]

Hello, I'm looking for information about the present status of the
"Large River" proposal (from the Wiki) viz. its consequences for
rendering. I found that Osmarender renders a river in "my" area

http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-1.0155&lon=-46.7088&zoom=12&layers=0BFT

correctly, while Mapnik prints only the waterway=riverbank lines at high
zoom levels but does not fill the river areas. I noticed a similar
problem with River Thames:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.38037&lon=-0.45917&zoom=16&layers=B0FT

What is the best way to get large rivers rendered properly for now?

Thanks for your help ...
Ulf
