Hello!
I'm CharlieG from Artenia. But, in the real OpenStreetMap, I'm Gorbs. I map areas around my home in Suburban Philadelphia, USA. Recently, I've been getting into mapping extreme detail and residential areas, since that's what most areas around me are comprised of, and what most areas are missing. While enjoying myself, I stopped mapping for a second and appreciated the updated design of OSM compared to OGF. I wondered why its top bar looked cleaner, why there were many more features for points, lines, and areas compared to OGF, etc. I noticed a while back (maybe 6-9 mo. ago) that OGF got an update, and the servers were down for about a day for me. Will this happen again soon? Could it? Not to be so arrogant in understanding how the server works, but I am curious as to why the major update has not happened yet.
Thanks for tuning in! -C
