Hi, Last time I tried consuming augmented diffs on a minutely basis, I hit the load-limitations which meant that I could not consume augmented diffs for some time afterwards, i.e. this will lead to black holes in your history.
Also, using timestamp start/end to fetch diffs for a given timestamp (like avachi) is problematic with some changesets that stay open for > 1 hours (this happens quite ofter). The live service running on osm.expandable.dk use the API as described previously to get the augmented diff for a changeset. If there where a better way I'm all ears!
