If it were up to me I'd suggest that the API starts returning versions numbers *now* (where possible, nodes don't have them yet). And we deploy in the near future the changes to JOSM to use them and return them. The way I wrote the JOSM patch was essentially so that you could deploy a version of JOSM beforehand that only needed a preference change to make it work for 0.6. With this in place by the time we actually upgrade the server most people will already be running up to date versions. In other words, I think it's easier to get clients to support both versions, than it is to get the server to support both.
