Then you agree with me, because I propose that people tag AND read/write to the wiki.

[OSM-talk] Freemap blog now up again, including Footnav updates
Hello everyone, After a long period of being down, largely due to being too busy with other things, the Freemap blog, which focuses on UK countryside mapping and my own development projects in this area, is now up again at: http://www.free-map.org.uk/wordpress/ If you're following the Footnav and/or FreemapMobile projects, updates on these projects will be detailed on the Freemap blog as they happen.

This comes from a discussion of whether we should tag and be dammed or spend all night searching the wiki for an appropriate combination or write a schema covering every possible case before we make an edit.

Note, however, that if you go any earlier than October 2007 you will encounter version 0.4 planet files which cannot be processed using today's tools. You will have to use SVN to retrieve an old version of /applications/utils/osm-extract/planetosm-excerpt-area.pl from SVN, and then use /applications/utils/conv05/04to05.pl to produce a version 0.5 extract which can be processed with today's tools. You can also get a primitive history animation (only nodes shown as dots) from labs.geofabrik.de/history, or if you give me the bbox then I could make an animated GIF like the ones on http://www.geofabrik.de/gallery/history/. But I must admit that the ITO animations look best so if you get them to do one that would be preferable.
