<p>carving up the API so that essentially independent parts can actually be run independent of each other<br>
I haven't seen much discussion of that, if any.</p>

<p>Yes, that concept sounds familiar, see my comment here: <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load issue title" data-id="415691486" data-permission-text="Issue title is private" data-url="https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/2162" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/2162/hovercard?comment_id=470207138&comment_type=issue_comment" href="https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/2162#issuecomment-470207138">#2162 (comment)</a></p>
<p>Quoting myself: <em>Today, we have so many different API endpoints under the umbrella of the API 0.6 that don't really belong there. Examples could be changeset discussions, gps traces, user data, and probably also map notes. Any incompatible changes here don't really warrant a new OSM API version in a strict sense IMHO, and this further complicates overall API evolution. Maybe that's worth exploring in another issue.</em></p>
