OpenStreetMap
The big multipolygon I made with lots of inner polygons is finally swallowed by Mapnik. I'm curious if OSMarender will display it, but I'm now waiting, I think, for three days now, to see my changes in OSMarender. They clearly have some problems there.

if you don't edit nodes, it will not be catched by the autorequester, and you have to request the tiles on your own at http://informationfreeway.org/?lat=52.267063511227&lon=5.08171668031983&zoom=12

I just noticed that you are in the Netherlands. The incredibly dense mapping there makes it quite hard to render quickly with osmarender, if at all on smaller Computers.

If it works with mapnik it works with osmarender. At the moment there is a problem with the mapnik layer, causing that every inner hole has to be anticlockwise. This is a bug and is on the (long) list of things to fix. http://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/1113

Well, I can tell osmarender is finally updated too, because a lot of my edits are showing now, but... not so my multipolygons! It's like trying to get a website to display correctly on two different browsers. Can't we just pick one rendering engine map and discard the rest? That'll simplify things.
Well for now: if anyone knows how to get it right on osmarender, please do tell!

Yep, Osmarender is doing the multipolygons now too. I'm now experimenting with th direction of the inner polygons. @Skywave; the direction of the inner ones in Mapnik doesn't seem to effect anything, they both show.
It looks like the more complicated objects take a bit longer to render then the smaller ones.
Anyhow, the area I'm working on is starting to look better and better in both engines, so progress is made nevertheless! When this part is finished I will progress to the surrounding area's.
