I am trying to get the boundary for Lusaka in Zambia: 22503172

I get an error at polygons.openstreetmap.fr

error

Any idea what might cause this?

Hi,

The link you currently have [http://osm102.openstreetmap.fr/~jocelyn/polygons/index.py] is no longer the official one. Could you replace it by http://polygons.openstreetmap.fr ?

Thanks !

Hi -- thanks for this repo. I have been looking for .poly files for US counties and created them here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/17ko4vftb8n3hlf/county_poly.zip?dl=0

Perhaps its useful to add them to this project? The files are appended with the GEOID for the county as defined by the US Census Bureau.

Just noticing that many cities in Australia are absent, while there are abundances of cities elsewhere.

also finding cities by name (by language) would be super, do you have a handy tool?

ie creating this relation local took a little digging

'Copenhagen' => 'denmark/region-hovedstaden/københavns-kommune_region-hovedstaden.poly',

here is a script to convert the cities (in nj) to osm
