@michael63-osm would you please merge this addition? Thanks.

Sorry that your request somehow remained undetected.

I just had a look at the interline website and noticed that "May 14, 2018: OSM Extracts by Interline are free during the developer preview". Could you comment what that means? Announcing a service on LearnOSM which would soon turn into a paid service is not exactly what we prefer.

Best Regards

@michael63-osm no worries -- thanks for your quick reply now.

We originally saw potential to eventually offer the service in exchange for donations. Our conversations with users since then have changed our plans. Extract downloads will remain free.
