[OSM-talk] OpenHikingMap - OpenCycleMap

[Stéphane Brunner]

Hello,

Thanks for this file,
I have try last evening but I have a problem to run correctly the svn
version of mapnik, I try again this evening.

But I have a question, how to include the generated file in a mapnik
style file, should I copy it or is there an import tag ?

CU and thanks for all.
Stéphane
