I just tried to look at tagwatch for North-america and got a 404, possibly because there is no north-america directory at http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/ either. What's up?
We haven't been doing North America for a while now. It puts considerable strain on our processing chain and is little used (i.e. we use almost as much bandwidth uploading the stuff to the server every day as people use for downloading). Most people who have computing resources sufficient for North America can also process the whole planet so we thought we needn't bother.
It is true that this sabotages tagwatch as well, we'll see what we can do to amend that. Tagwatch runs on the German OSM dev server which is also heavily used. Do you think the US community would be willing and able to run tagwatch-US somewhere on their servers? It could perhaps even be done state-by-state based on the Cloudmade extracts, or of course based on a North America extract from the planet.
