Hi, on the night of Saturday 05 December, a couple of European Geofabrik country extracts (*not* the full Europe extract) failed to compute correctly, and the auto-generated diff files for these region then indicated the deletion of a very large number of objects (sometimes *all* objects). This mistake was detected and fixed on Sunday noon, by dropping the broken data and reverting to the previous version.
However, anyone who downloaded and applied the diff between Sunday ~ 4am UTC and ~ noon UTC will probably have ruined their database and will have to start anew from a full extract. Simply carrying on downloading diffs will *not* suffice because when reverting to the previous version we completely erased the broken diff, and hence the diff generated the next night will *not* simply make everything good again if you consumed one of the broken diffs. A list of affected extracts is in this forum post: http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=564747#p564747 I'm sorry if this has caused a hiccup in your downstream services and I'm implementing a few extra sanity checks to avoid something similar in the future.
