I hate to ask for more than this- but could you give some kind of mapping between geographic region and these osc filess? > My questions are: > > 1.

I think that's reasonable, but is there a proposal on the regular imports list? And if so, how about a period to evaluate the files and the script? > 2.

Sadly api06 doesn't have the OSM data, but I think that we should some kind of testbed, not just for this, but for other imports aw well. > 4.
