I’m interested in creating a mapfile that displays nice cartographic map for the roads and uses highway shields for the labels.  Ultimately turning this into a TMS using tilecache.  Or would people recommend sticking with Mapnik’s stylesheets to render the data into images?  I did a few searches and only came across this.  http://code.google.com/p/mapserver-utils/source/browse/trunk  I’m new to OSM data so just starting to explore options.

http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/wiki/RenderingOsmData leads to that location as well; This is the mapfile that is used for the map on the homepage:

So it's probably a safe starting point.
