I can still get the scan in the areas nearer to Brisbane but not the newly released areas. >I'm not sure that I understand the problem that you are describing. >Do you mean to say that Yahoo images load normally, but nearmap images do not? That sounds like a configuration problem, or problem with nearmap. Have >you configured a wms address for nearmap? >After updating josm you should update the josm plugins as well. This is automatic iirc. I would expect your old nearmap wms link to have been >automatically upgraded with the josm / plugin upgrade. Did something change there? >If you have found a new bug, the josm bug reporting system is called trac and you can find it here. http://josm.openstreetmap.de When I upgraded JOSM I was given the option to load plugins which I did. I think I am getting Yahoo satellite scans but not Nearmap. When I open the WMS tab the options I get are Land Sat, Yahoo Sat, Rectified Image and Blank Layer. I have a feeling that I have to do something else to configure Nearmap but I can't find where I do it. I have searched the Wiki and found some plugins for Nearmap but they don't work. The two slippy map options both give me a message that says "more OSM coming soon" and the WMS option gives me a message that says "Error". This may all add up to a bug. There is no Nearmap or Slippy Map options on my Edit/Options menu but I am not sufficiently experiences in OSM or JOSM to know if this all adds up to a bug. Hence my appeal to Newbies.
