Todo

This software isn't finished, here's what I'd like to add. Feel free to send a patch

• Write to compressed output (Gzip & Bzip2). Also in a separate thread too
• Read (& uncompress) input file in a separate thread. This multiprocessing should make things faster.
• Query the OSM.org servers for current status, and update the CSV. e.g. close exisiting changesets, and add new one. The Dump is only once a week.
