It's a good example of what Frederik is afraid of OSM "becoming" (for want of
a better word), and rightly so.

Have now made these here FWIW:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:OSM_Protocol_Version_0.6#Late_comments_on_the_interface
I'm sure I had more to add, but can't think of it at the minute. Will add when
I remember.
On why I thought it as too late: I inferred from some discussion on the lists
that the API design was locked down. The wiki page was pretty messy until
recently.
I have been keeping notes on my thoughts about the API for a little while, but
I'm having trouble digging them up now. Might have been only in my head. :~(
This weekend of yours sure snuck up on me.
Happy hacking!
