With the map distribution server back online (thank you @MartinK!), I am preparing for a new release with an updated geocoder-nlp implementation that reduces the used storage size and should be faster as well. Unfortunately, it requires a new data storage format. While I did my best with the testing, its a major change and could lead to some breakage.

So, if you are planning a trip and depend on OSM Scout Server then I suggest to get the required maps today/tomorrow and store them in a safe place before the upgrade. If all goes as planned, I will publish new version on Wednesday morning with the World maps uploaded to the maps distribution server during a night between Tuesday and Wednesday.
