Dear all,
Today, v5.7.0 of the OpenStreetMap Carto stylesheet (the default stylesheet on the OSM website) has been released. Once changes are deployed on openstreetmap.org it will take couple of days before all tiles show the new rendering.
Changes include - Unpaved roads are now indicated on the map (#3399)
-
Country label placement improved, particularly for countries in the north (#4616)
-
Added elevation to wilderness huts (#4648)
-
New index for low-zoom performance (#4617)
-
Added a script to switch between script variations for CJK languages (#4707)
-
Ordering fixes for piers (#4703)
-
Numerous CI improvements
Thanks to all the contributors for this release, including wyskoj, tjur0, depth221, SlowMo24, altilunium, and cklein05, all new contributors.

Excellent! The $64,000 question is - are roads without a surface tag assumed to be paved or unpaved?

(answering my own question) - roads not know to be paved or unpaved are shown the same as before, which is how paved roads are now. This tile, the area around here, shows that.

Thanks for paved / unpaved. Will there be rendering for Ice roads like https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/651548293#map=16/51.4979/-57.4899 ?

In this case, the ice_road=yes is tagged on the relation for this route https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/9068170

Is there a screenshot showing the difference between untagged / paved / unpaved Road variants? I scrolled through the Github ticket showing various graphics but it’s not clear to me whichbturned out as the eventual way styling that was shipped.
