Osmosis --rci takes care of downloading and merging of diffs for you. Say your cron doesn't run for a while, for whatever reason. Osmosis remembers the last diff it downloaded, and will pick up where it stopped, merge all more recent diffs that it finds, and pipes that to osm2pgsql in one stream. Say your diff import takes more than the time between your cron runs, and again, it's very handy that osmosis takes care of a lot of diff bookkeeping for you. -- Lennard _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
