JOSM is an editor for [http://www.openstreetmap.org OpenStreetMap] written in Java 1.5.
The current version supports stand alone GPX tracks, GPX track data from the OSM database and existing nodes, ways and metadata tags from the OSM database.

== News ==

'''Changeover to josm.openstreetmap.de''' - if you still have any bookmarks that include "josm.eigenheimstrasse.de", please change them as the forward is going to be removed some time. The SVN respository has been slightly re-structured (by introducing a trunk/branch level) so if you do checkouts you will want to check out from "trunk" instead of getting the full repository.

(Other) news is announced [http://www.opengeodata.org/?cat=17 here].

Due to changes in the server you must be running a version of JOSM newer than __r345__.
