I'm trying to set up my own infrastructure for more frequent OSMand map updates in Laos as I'm doing a lot of mapping in the area and would like to have it available for cycling trips without waiting for the official monthly update. The problem is that Geofabrik Geofabrik's https://download.geofabrik.de/ doesn't offer a country extract here. No idea why -- they offer North Korea, Turkmenistan and similar places that are certainly much less popular touristically and otherwise; when I mailed them over a year ago they sad they "might consider" making Laos available some time, alas it's not happening. I tried setting up my own planet database but apart from some borderline underpowered hardware I've been running into a kernel bug that causes postgres to quickly crash the VM, so that's not an option for now. Any ideas how to get my hands on some extract that's updated at least weekly?
