Paul,
Since you are involved with updating the rendering, can you tell us the
process to decide what should be rendered? I realize that part of it must
be stylistic, but what outside influences cause you to include a tag as
part of the standard rendered OSM tile? Would you render a tag without a
wiki entry, or with just a proposal?

How does the fact that it may be useful to specific groups, ie, cyclists
which has its own style impact your decisions?
