IP blocked after multiple nopminatim calls

0

Hello,

I am testing nominatim API and apparently was blocked. I think I didn't respect the usage policy limits, regarding cache of similar requests. I didn't noticed this point at first sight.

Could you please unblock my IP so that I may continue my tests (and improve my code) ?

My public IP is : 87.91.15.82.

Is there other usages policies I should respect ?

Many Thanks in advance

Better try to contact the admins via IRC on #osm-dev or #osm. And there are other usage policies, for example the tile usage policy.

Personally, I wouldn't open a ticket on trac unless you're logging a bug.

Note that (a) there are other public nominatim instances and (b) you could set up your own.
