Just to say that we have just updated the data in OSM Mapper from the
8th Sept to the 18th Sept. A huge apology for what I believe is the
longest interval between updates that we have ever had. There are a
couple of reasons for this.
Firstly, the import time is increasing dramatically.
Well done, and congratulations! I saw the feed come through earlier on
this morning and have been working through reviewing the changes in my area.
In my so far futile attempts to reload the namefinder index, I've found
the same thing - the time to reload seems to be exponential with the
size.

How?
We seem unable to contact Liam123 via normal channels. This means we
have to think of other ways of contacting members who continually put
mistakes into the dataset.
Is it not possible to put a flag on his account, so when he logs in he
is told what he has been doing and asked to explain himself?

Ok, turns out it's not so hard to upload ~20GB of data.
The files are now available on the following web address. I'm not
really sure how well my server's going to handle this so please, don't
go too crazy, please don't download the tar files if you don't really
need them or aren't likely

I had a look at some of yesterday's changes - the road classification
changes
I had a request for adding the points to a map so I've added that at
http://milliams.com/verticalitymetre/map.html.
The stats page can also now be sorted in different ways and is
colourised to make it pretty.
At the moment, about a quarter of the images have been tagged and I'd
