We are temporarily halting the daily processes that digest the routes driven as well as updates the map and client tiles.

This is due to the enormous load we are experiencing with the current featuring of version 3.0. and in order to enable us to preserve the real-time service, while delaying the off-line related services until the surge is reduced to a more manageable rate.

There is no loss of any data, but there will be a delay in presenting archived routes, calculating points, as well as compiling the map editing updates.

Further to the release of version 3.0 (Android version to be released as well), our efforts and thoughts are now concentrated on the infrastructure and scaling related issues and processes so as to achieve the goal of the 24 hour cycle. This includes redesign and development of major components such as the drive merging process and the tile creation which is estimated to take several weeks to complete.

Our goal is to enable and sustain any growth in usage and users and we will keep you informed of the progress and planned activities.
