Dear all,
have I got it right that no diffs at all will be available until the end of
the redaction? In particular, it is intended that
- all data users keep stick to the last CC-BY-SA planet until April 11th or a
little bit later?
- the slippy map shows no updates until that date, although users can edit the
data?
- so does services like XAPI, the Geofabrik extracts, my Overpass API, and
probably other services?
While I think this is not a problem in itself, I should be communicated quite
clearly that there will be no feedback on edits in the transistion time, with
a roughly 10-to-12-day-lag in the end. The step from once-a-week Mapnik to the
minute Mapnik a long time ago had got broad feedback. Thus, quite a lot of
users might be confused when these old times come back temporarily without
explicit explanation.
Should there be a central announcement or should each service announce the
update suspension itself?
Best regards,
Roland
