Due to a internet failure, I have missed the modifications-2010-07-09.txt and the three others as well. Is there a way to get these?

The files are not available. Please download the full dump.

@Marc: would it be possible to keep on the download server the 7 latest Modifications/Deletes files ? These are very small files.

I don't want to make it more complex then necessary. It is simple enough to load the full dump.

I would like to second this request. I have to disagree with you, Marc, about how leaving a few day's worth of delta files makes anything more complicated.

For folks using the allCountries.zip dump, importing the 900MB file into a database can be very challenging when the database is under heavy use.

Having the flexibility to fetch days-old deltas would make keeping the database up to date a much simpler feat.

Please consider doing this!

In the interim, I have set up a mirror/archive at http://geonames.rtlong.com/

Thanks.
