I think server side rendering is not a good solution. This requires a crazy amount of infrastructure to do a task that can easily be done on the browser side (or that is how it should be done). Canvas rendering works absolutely fine in IE9 and I would first explore the possibilities of using VML, SVG and Canvas on IE browsers. What exactly is the problem anyways? Which IE versions are acting up? How is the vector layer displayed (SVG?). Daniel

It seem to give some problems with WIWOSM at some versions of IE. We had longer discussions at german Wikipedia[1] and at german OSM-mailing list[2]. The question is now, do we have a chance to build up a serverside rendering for this on toolserver?
I think in two direction: *set up Geoserver or somethink like it *Install new version of mapnik so that it would be possible to give them parameter for language and article title
