You can do the following: 1. Download the latest planet (ie. http://planet.openstreetmap.org/planet-081126.osm.bz2). 2. Download and install osmosis (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Osmosis) 3. Run the planet file through the osmosis --bounding-box task to extract your region of interest. 4. Use the osmosis --read-change-interval-init task to initialise a working directory for changeset replication (ie. osmosis --read-change-interval-init workingDirectory=. initialDate=2008-11-25_00:00:00). 5. Configure the configuration.txt file to retrieve daily changeset files (ie. set baseUrl=http://planet.openstreetmap.org/daily, intervalLength=86400, changeFileBeginFormat=yyyyMMdd, and changeFileEndFormat=yyyyMMdd). 6. Download my replication script (http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/utils/osmosis/script/contrib/replicate_osm_file.sh). 7. Modify the script to suit your bounding box and file names. 8. Run the script from cron daily.
To see an example working directory using hourly changesets look at http://www.bretth.com/myanmar/. That directory contains a snapshot of the Myanmar region. Let me know if you have any questions on the above steps.
