It's now possible to request updates of slippy map tiles in a particular area, 
using a button on the map browser:

http://dev.openstreetmap.org/~ojw/Browse/

If you see tiles missing, use that button to ask for them.

To add that functionality on your own programs and websites, see the API 
description for requesting tiles:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Tiles%40home/APIs#Requesting_updates

Check whether your request worked, or see other peoples' requests at:

Martijn's script should detect any changes to OSM data (using nodes.rss) so 
hopefully it will update areas as people map them anyway.

Regards,

OJW
