[OSM-talk] Mapnik and towns

[Ed Loach]

Does Mapnik use some shape files somewhere to mark the extent of towns on the map at zoom level 10?

I ask because the towns of Clacton and Walton-on-the-Naze seem to have light grey shadows on the northern edge as though the shapes are misaligned. Zooming in to level 11 and the light grey shadows go (and I think zooming out to level 9 leaves only the shadows).
