A bit off topic: I just tried overpass and was surprised that the
default seems to be to strip the version and date, I'm not so keen on
that "feature".
Thinking about this, I like the stripping of the version number.
We're having a lot of trouble with people doing mass edits by using XAPI
etc. to download e.g. everything with name=McDonalds world-wide and
replacing that with name=McDonald's - breaking a lot of correct things
in the process. Not serving the version number on XAPI, Overpass and
others would send a clear signal that these services are not to be used
for editing.
