[josm-dev] OpenStreetBugs: copy string from comment possible?
Hi, while committing corrections recently, I wondered if the OSB plugin provides no way to extract or copy the comment string since someone registering that concerning bug -a missing street name- must have seen any sense in commenting the formerly missing information to OSB rather than adding a road's name tag.. anyway, I had to retype it, which isn't that fail-safe. cheers, klaus ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
[josm-dev] Cancel while downloading relations
I downloaded a relation which contains a lot of relations. So I selected them all and did download members. These were some 140 relations. The downloading went fast until all of a sudden it stopped. This was after about 84 relations. So I pressed cancel, expecting the downloaded relations to be in JOSM. Much to my surprise they weren't. Is there a technical reason for JOSM to discard already downloaded relations when you press cancel? I would think that there is no difference with getting them one at a time, it's only a faster way of downloading more relations. If there is no technical reason, then I'm going to enter this is a bug. Regards, Maarten ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev

Because of the way most OSM lists are set up, I accidentally sent a personal email to the whole list back when I was starting... A Reply-To: header makes it difficult to reply to the author. That is the odd case. 95% of the time it is appropriate to reply to the list to share the knowledge. Especially the subscribers of a developers' mailing list should know how to use (and configure) their MUA. Most popular MUAs have no special handling for the case of reply-to-list. I know the list setup won't change, but I thought I'd add my opinion. g ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev

The more I think about it the stronger gets my urge to change this behavior... That's what I did now... 22702 I agree. My latest changes to implement remote control for wmsplugin made it impossible to change the default for an individual command. I think I should change this. I guess this will be an incompatible change, that means people who update only remotecontrol but not wmsplugin will probably get a hard error. I will also implement a function to request the API version of the remotecontrol plugin. So in future wmsplugin will not use remotecontrol if it is too new.
