Yes, thanks much, James! (For linking "Reporting Infringement to Microsoft"). I do wonder if simply forking and charging money for existing open-source software is an egregious slap in the face to OSM (JOSM developers, especially), although I'm not an attorney. So, I'd urge our LWG /

Without wishing to "diss" (disparage) Lukas's tool (I haven't evaluated it), I would also urge caution here, for exactly the reasons DaveF outlines. I'm also a partly-armchair mapper, but not (usually, if ever) using Python tools, rather knowing that my "armchair-ing" is going to be of high

You can only leave a review if you download the software. Both are JOSM, one is a fork which costs money which goes to the person who created the fork the other is normal JOSM which is free. Cheerio John On Sun, Nov 27, 2022, 11:01 PM stevea, wrote: > If choosing which version is "legitimate"

If choosing which version is "legitimate" (or preferred) is important, and "leaving a review" is a (one) method for communicating that, I would underscore that if you do leave a review, make very clear how one differs from the other. On Nov 27, 2022, at 5:33 PM, john whelan wrote: > > Agreed

Agreed but some do and currently both have one review each so it isn't that clear which is the official OpenStreetMap editor. Even a couple more reviews would help. Thanks Cheerio John On Sun, Nov 27, 2022, 20:27 James wrote: > not everyone runs winblows > > On Sun, Nov 27, 2022, 8:19 PM

On a windows machine do a search for Microsoft store.  Then search for JOSM.  Download it then you can leave a review.  The more reviews it has the more it looks as if it is the legitimate version. The other version which is a fork of JOSM is called  OpenStreetMap editor and has a JOSM screen

Most roads don't have names. Any comparison has to be done against an authoritative database or on ground surveying, for the area in which you're searching. "where the name can be interpolated from neighbouring ways. This allows to detect and armchair-fix a (small) subset of these cases with
