[Greg]

Hi all,

Unfortunately the update script for the FHRS/OSM comparison tool
<http://gregrs.dev.openstreetmap.org/fhrs/> failed last night. It
appears that there is a problem with the FHRS API, which the tool uses
to download FHRS information. I will investigate this issue further as
soon as possible. You can follow its progress on GitHub:
<https://github.com/gregrs-uk/python-fhrs-osm/issues/21>.

You can continue to use the tool but the data was last updated on
Tuesday morning rather than this morning.

Thanks,
Greg
