Bearstech was being used for testing.  It is now being brought on-line, but
this is taking a while because the database is a month out of date and it
will take a while to be fully current.

xapi.osm.org is a tiny server and doesn't really have the horsepower to do
the job.  It was left on 0.5 and will probably remain that way until we have
some decent servers running a proper service.

What services levels would you foresee offering and how much do you
think it would cost?  I'd be willing to pay if it would help improve the
service.

What has happened to the current three XAPI server?  I know about
Hypercube but why are the others currently down?  I'm happy to help out
if there is anything I can do to help get them back online.

If you're interested in improving free postcode information, then
these two web sites will probably also be of interest to you:

Welcome Jack. Good to have you here.

Perhaps when the festival is over you might ask if you can map the farm for
future festivals.

Cheers
