[OSM-talk] OSM-carto development environment

[Daniel Koć]

Hi,

I try to dive deeper into developing OSM-carto (default OSM map style) 
for some time and the critical part of it appears to get development 
environment up and running (beside just editing, previewing and testing 
is very important). I'm still stuck a bit, but plan to end up with 
environment ready to go and some tools for others to help them do the 
same.

Basically we're trying 2 approaches - simple installation script and a 
set of ready, virtualized components (think Docker/Vagrant):

https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/657
https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/1342

I'd like to know how many people might be interested in using it and 
what guidance would they expect? What host OS should we consider - do 
they want to use it on 32-bit Linux, 64-bit Linux, Windows (32? 64?) or 
anything else? Any other big obstacles, wishes or comments?
