I understand that it will be faster to reach the server, that makes it
perfect for local tile server and planet extracts mirror, but I don't
see any technical/economical reasons for a local copy of the API for
uploading changesets.. Uploads of changesets to an unloaded API server
might be faster, but edit conflicts are going to drive you insane, so
unless it's 10x faster and 10x cheaper to use a local upload server
then don't do it.

Is it really slow to upload changesets from Indonesia?
