[OSM-talk] Overpass XAPI URL Status

I help support a large company that uses OSM data, pulled via a specific
query at  xxxx://www.overpass-api.de/api/xapi. This query runs about once a
month.

It recently stopped working apparently because of a hack and because of
bogus querys:

The comment is "I'll restore /api/xapi when this problematic access pattern
has ceased."

The rambler instance seems to work partially, but is really slow.
----------------------------------

People's thoughts on the downtime, and the future of this service?
I find it quite valuable.
