I tried to do this last time, but symlinks don't work very well if you have
a Windows client.  As all the Osmarender development is done on a Windows
box this seemed to be a bit counter-productive.  If you've done it that's
fine - I'll find a way of working with it.

I haven't made a new standard.xml and I'm not sure that I will as there
isn't really such a thing as a standard rendering of OSM data.  Maybe
baseline or default would be better names.  Anyway
osm-map-features-z17.xmlis probably the nearest thing we have to that
for now.

OK, finally Osma5 has arrived and is being used by t at h. The client has been
renamed to 'Kingston'. So far, so good. However, I was majorly annoyed by
the fact that we have 2 copies of osma5 in SVN now. One in the osmarender5
directory and a exact copy of it in the tilesAtHome directory. When I did
style changes in one directory, I forgot to make the same changes in the
other directory. So both versions are bound to deviate and one of them to
get neglected.

I solved the issue, by making the osmarender5 directory be pulled in as a
subdirectory into the tilesAtHome directory via the svn:externals property.

There is only one disadvantage, as far as I can see: If you make changes in
the stylesheets of t at h (which are stored in tilesAtHome/osmarender/ now) you
will need to 'cd' into the osmarender directory and commit them there, as it
is a different checkout.

If you haven't understood any of the gobbledigock I've just written, you are
probably fine. Just updating the the t at h client with subversion will pull
and delete all the right stuff.
