Kai Krueger:
may I ask what the current status on the rendering stack on the toolserver is?
The software, i.e. mod_tile and renderd is working. It's not online at the moment, because it was only a test version running under my account. I'm currently considering the best way to make it available permanently (probably running under the OSM account).
Thanks for the update and together with the tickets in JIRA about ptolemy that I hadn't seen before, it makes much clearer whats going on and where things stand.
As there are a couple of people here in Berlin who are interested in OSM, I'd like to organise some kind of discussion/workshop tomorrow to discuss where the OSM/Toolserver stuff is going.
That would be great. A good understanding of what the core objectives are and thus which parts are needed would be very helpful in focusing efforts.
Just as ideas, but somethings that might be interesting to start with would be to e.g. move over the embeded OSM map in the german geohack from using the OSMF servers to wikimedias servers. As far as I know, the load generated on the OSM tile server from the geohack isn't particularly large, so I don't think it is a priority from OSMF's point of view, but it might still be a good test for the toolserver setup and it would be nice if other country's geohacks would follow and also directly include a OSM map. Another potentially nice use would be to include the OSM maps in the Wiki Mini Atlas as an additional source.
Both of those might be easier first steps than getting the maps plugin into a wikipedia.
But it will be interesting to hear what conclusions people will come to during the workshop.

At least Avar and Tim
(Kolossos) expressed an interest in that... if anyone else here would like to join in, please find me tonight (on the boat) or tomorrow morning at the venue so we can sort something out.
