I would much prefer to see an officially approved method. People can give more thought to it but the basic idea of a workflow for simple tasks using JOSM I think is good. JOSM is easier than some people it credit for but more to the point we get less area=yes instead of buildings=yes, highways

John, Ray, I think the quick start guide is a very neat idea. I would need to try the workflow and a few variations for myself. For the time being I only have reservations about the trick upload-and-cancel. It would be IMO simpler and better to guide people to use consciously validation instead
