You have no right to demand that other will spend their free time on something just because it is important to you. In exactly the same way as I have no right to demand that you will make trip to Kraków, Poland to map bicycle parkings there. > I'm increasingly disappointed my *voluntary* contributions to the OSM > database are are not being fairly or accurately being represented by > OSM-Carto due to errors in the programming.

OSM Carto renders bridges tagged with man_made=bridge (and bridges on railway=disused). (at least thanks to this part I can pretend that this is not 100% offtopic) ---- To repeat: you are entitled to some things but "other people will consider my desires in topic of OSM map render as the most important thing in their life" is not a human right. If you want to encourage other to work on OSM Carto map style (or other map style) then I would recommend to avoid hostile, entitled complaints for a start. ---- And if someone wonders why iD developers deeply dislike mailing lists - probably this kind of comments is justified part of it.
