Re: [Maposmatic-dev] Features from the Code Sprint?

[Dane Springmeyer]

I am aware of:

http://trac.mapnik.org/ticket/585
and
http://trac.mapnik.org/ticket/586

Is there anything else on the Mapnik side that is causing any problems in the 
making live the new work?

If so please let me know.

Tom Hughes (Mapnik dev who added Cairo backend) will be at the upcoming 
http://mapnik.org/news/2010/sep/03/msc01/ and I am hoping we can talk over some 
of these Cairo issues in more detail.
