Oh, now that I think of it, it might be possible to just load the last
month's list of nodes as received from XAPI into JOSM and tell it to
"Update data" and it might be able to make a couple of group requests
for the current versions of these nodes.  If this doesn't work then it
might work if you add <bounds> elements at the top of the xml file for
each country node.
