Dear all The API downtime scheduled for the 0.6 API transition has been postponed due to delays acquiring the new database server. The re-scheduled API downtime for the 0.6 API upgrade is now the weekend of the 17-20th April 2009.

I'll start them again when the db comes online again after the migration and they'll be in 0.6 format. It will be necessary to download a new planet and resync again.

Shaun, that's fine, but I can only do 21/22 in March so you guys would be on your own to set up and I'd need to find somewhere else to focus on for the 21/22nd.

I've blocked out one for that weekend, but it's my birthday anyway, so perhaps I should stay home and have a quiet birthday party? I'm thinking so.

IMHO it's a good idea to post these dates in the event calender. With some emphasis. Regards, Maarten ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

To make things a little clearer, we are actually blocking out four days for this, from 20th to 23rd March. So don't count on being able to upload anything during that period. There is only one mapping party listed for that weekend on the wiki, and it doesn't have any details yet, which is part of the reason why that date was chosen as it will hopefully minimise the disruption caused.

[OSM-talk] 0.6 move and downtime
Dear all We had a review call today on the technical side of OSM and one of the things that came up was the transition to API 0.6 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Protocol_Version_0.6 API 0.6 is the latest and greatest in OSM APIs and brings scrummy goodness like changesets. You can read more at the wiki page. A lot of work has gone in to it from a number of people. The downside is that there needs to be some database downtime while the change happens. This means a period of time without login, editing and so on. The slippy map will of course still work. We have agreed a date of 21/22 March. During this time, and possibly for a little while after, you won't be able to log in or edit while things are upgraded. Technical questions on this should be thrown at Matt Amos and TomH. So, apologies, but hopefully this is enough advance warning for you to avoid activities around that time. From there OSM will be stronger, better, faster, longer and higher than before.
