[Imports] FTP space for import data files

[Steve Singer]

On some imports someone will run the conversion scripts to convert the 
data to .osm and then a larger group of people will review/tweak/connect to 
the existing data. Is there anywhere in the OSM infrastructure where the 
dataf iles in .osm format can be stored/shared (before they are ready to be 
uploaded to the API).

For example in the Canadian import I generate 'complete' .osm files that 
contain all the geobase roads.  However I only bulk upload roads that 
RoadMatcher thinks are unlikely to conflict with existing osm roads. 
Ideally local mappers will then compare these 'complete' .osm files with the 
live map (post upload) and do cleanup (add missing roads, connnect ways, 
delete duplicates etc....).  I've been posting these .osm files on a free 
file sharing site but it's been pointed out that one of the sites I've been 
using deletes files after so many days of inactivity.  Is there a OSM hosted 
place that I can upload these files to.
