[Openstreetmap] Re: OSM Peformance is terrible

[Tom Carden]

Jens, Lars, others,

Steve said recently that he was waiting for onearth to come back
online before fixing a bunch of things. Please be patient.  You can
see from Trac's timeline (www.openstreetmap.org/trac/timeline) that
OSM is getting frequent updates at the moment from both Steve and
Mikel.  Things are sometimes slow, and things are up and down, but
your data is (pretty) safe and we're grateful to hear all the options
for funding/hosting - keep them coming!

But a little patience, please!  It's 11pm on a Monday night... hardly
crunch time for unpaid bug-fixing.

Phone a friend, or take a walk, or read a book.  OSM will be back soon :)

Best,

Tom.
