While a map without borders is quite a powerful philosophical statement,
is it really part of Openstreetmap's core role ? As Christian said, let
users answer their political and artistic urges through using the
Openstreetmap data - let a thousand renders bloom ! A new map style as a
core service would be yet another nitpicking topic, mired in mailing
list discussions... Openstreetmap's strength is that only the data
requires consensus - each user has the freedom to produce his ideal
rendering of the data without having to ask anyone's permission... Let
them take advantage of it !
