Hi all,

(at least) the hypercube XAPI server seems to be missing nodes.

$ wget 
'http://osmxapi.hypercube.telascience.org/api/0.5/*[bbox=8.4571,49.4855,8.4607,49.4873]'
 -O MA1.osm
$ wget 
'http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=8.4571,49.4855,8.4607,49.4873' 
-O MA2.osm
$ grep '<node id' MA1.osm | wc -l
55
$ grep '<node id' MA2.osm | wc -l
111
$ grep 249819997 MA[12].osm
MA2.osm:  <node id="249819997" lat="49.4866651" lon="8.4581842" 
user="[HEK]the_other" visible="true" timestamp="2008-03-01T17:08:25+00:00">
MA2.osm:    <nd ref="249819997"/>
MA2.osm:    <nd ref="249819997"/>
$ grep '<way id' MA1.osm | wc -l
12
$ grep '<way id' MA2.osm | wc -l
21

When I checked to see how many nodes where added today, I found that only two 
of three nodes updated during the same second today made it to the XAPI:

$ grep 2008-11-15 /tmp/MA*
/tmp/MA1.osm:  <node id='30391456' lat='49.4872431' lon='8.4599382' 
timestamp='2008-11-15T14:24:47Z'>
/tmp/MA1.osm:  <node id='30391457' lat='49.4869184' lon='8.4596203' 
timestamp='2008-11-15T14:24:47Z'>
/tmp/MA2.osm:  <node id="30391456" lat="49.4872431" lon="8.4599382" 
visible="true" timestamp="2008-11-15T14:24:47+00:00">
/tmp/MA2.osm:  <node id="30391457" lat="49.4869184" lon="8.4596203" 
visible="true" timestamp="2008-11-15T14:24:47+00:00">
/tmp/MA2.osm:  <node id="30391455" lat="49.4876508" lon="8.4589878" 
visible="true" timestamp="2008-11-15T14:24:47+00:00">

Note that 30391455 is missing from the XAPI (MA1) data. From the node ids, one 
should guess that they have been created within a second, also. When I tried to 
verify this, I found that the creation of the missing node also hasn't been 
recorded in the main history:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/30391455/history
The other's are OK:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/30391456/history
Maybe that's starting point for debugging this.

I noticed this in other areas, too.
More extensive research revealed three "recent" periods of time where 
timestamps of missing nodes accumulated:
On 2008-09-21, 2008-09-23, 2008-11-02.
Of course this data is only representative for the small area I checked.
