Please note also, that this week a new server infrastructure has been

Assuming there was some catastrophic server failure, and further assuming
that you are not personally available to fix things -
1. will anyone else in the world be able to re-create the trac setup that you
have created? Are any of the core JOSM developers involved? I know that I'm
not and to me it looks like quite a maze! How long would it take someone to
Well no. There are only 2 places - A Cron job doing these regular checks
of external stuff and one JOSM-plugin for Trac. Trac is really a powerful
software which allows such expansions in a nice way. The only problem is,
that we can't move away from trac without loosing all these features.
create the required infrastructure? Is there documentation? (Don't say "yes,
in trac" ;) Are there backups that include all the config files etc.?
/home/josm/backup contains a daily backup with everything included.
Currently I'm probably the only one doing a daily copy of this file. I
would appreciate if you (and/or Sebastian) do as well. /home/josm/README
contains notes what needs to be done to resetup all (actually only
apache+cron config and installing of relevant software).
2. what parts of JOSM will not work as long as the server is down?
Every automatism (update-list, plugins-list, style-list, help and start
page), and Yahoo download. For all of these users would need to do the
manual way - download and install :-) The same as when using JOSM offline.
