Dear all, I'm back with providing updates. After more than a year I'm proud to present a new release. This release provides some smaller new features.
It is possible to use _angle()_ to filter ways by the angles of their inner vertices. This way, you can find e.g. non-rectangular buildings or unintended whiskers. https://dev.overpass-api.de/blog/total_0_7_56.html#angle A recurse can now be restricted by the relative position of the entry in the object. I.e. you can obtain only the first or only the last node of a way. https://dev.overpass-api.de/blog/total_0_7_56.html#memberpos The idea of _nwr_ has been extended both to variants _nw_, _wr_, and _nr_. And it is now possible with the <em>count</em> evaluator as well. https://dev.overpass-api.de/blog/total_0_7_56.html#type_shortcuts For the users of own instances, queries can now be passed by the command line parameter _--request=_ as well. Two larger features have been hold back because they break the database layout, and I do not want to do that too often: support for large objects (which are necessary to have Antarctica as an area) and a reoriganization of access to attribution data (changeset ids, user ids, user names). I intend to bundle them with the necessary changes to use ways and relations directly as areas, but that is not implemented yet.
