I'm including a patch for this, that only impacts the ChangeDeriver class.

I have tested it on a country, and the generated diff was correct - the
only difference with the current osmosis version is the version on
deleted elements.

I had not followed this thread, sorry. I didn't know the Geofabrik diffs had this problem, but of course if one thinks about it, it does seem logical - comparing two excerpts, when the newer one doesn't have an object then how am I to know who deleted it when and in what version?

I could run Jocelyn's patch on the Geofabrik server but technically it would create wrong osc files - if you were to compare a Geofabrik osc with one loaded from osm.org you'd find that the Geofabrik diff reports the wrong user name, wrong timestamp, and *possibly* also wrong version on a deleted object.

No idea if that problem is worse than the one we have now!

Bye
Frederik
