Is a version number required for new elements? I'm looking at the example at the end of
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OsmChange I understand that you get the changeset id from a create call, and that you use unique negative numbers for the related new elements within a changeset, but I don't understand why I need to pass version and timestamp. The examples show a timestamp from before the 0.6 API was released, and version numbers larger than 1. I'm working on a tool to update OSM based on appropriately-licensed geocoded photos (at the moment, photos I've taken), and want to make sure I understand the proper way to update the database. Thanks, Tac Here's the section from that page I'm finding confusing.: For the /api/0.6/changeset/#id/upload API call to work correctly, you have to include the changeset ID and version number in every node, way and relation, like so: <osmChange version="0.6" generator="Osmosis"> <create> <node id="-1" timestamp="2007-01-02T00:00:00.0+11:00" lat="-33.9133118622908" lon="151.117335519304" *changeset="1234"* *version="12"*/> <way id="-3" timestamp="2007-01-02T00:00:00.0+11:00" *changeset="1234"* *version="32"*> <nd ref="-1"/> <nd ref="-2"/> </way> </create> </osmChange>
