Is there a good reason why my TIGER place bulk uploads keep getting blocked with 403s? I'll gladly add further backoffs and more reuse of existing changesets (currently I've set the uploader to chunks of 250 elements and changesets of 20 uploads, essentially limiting each changeset to 5000 elements, with a 15 second delay before retrying a 500 error and bailing after 3 consecutive 500s or any other error), or even add a delay between each chunk if the server needs to breathe/reduce contention, but it'd be nice if someone *told* me what the problem was so I could fix it.
(BTW, my hacked-up uploader is at http://www.lordsutch.com/osm/bulk_upload.py if anyone has any questions about the code - it's based on the existing Python bulk uploader but with some tweaks to make it more reliable.)
