That's a problem I am having (for the Geofabrik Excerpts) as well - once<br>
a daily diff has failed, I'm stuck for the rest of the week. Actually<br>
this time I simply applied the new diffs anyway, ignoring possible<br>
consistency problems, but it's not the best thing.<br>
<br>
Would it be possible to issue "extra" planet dumps after events that<br>
disrupt the diff chain, like we had last week? So that those who rely on<br>
diffs for a current version of the data have a clean start to work on,<br>
without having to wait for the next regular planet?<br>
<br>
What does OSMXAPI do in cases like these?<br>
