Hi All
This might be just a survey with long gaps between points, but my
Whereis based GPS also has the same road layout.
I am a little worried that someone has copied another map, complete with faults.
Look at my trace relative to what the road is drawn at.
Is Drewboy in this forum ?
...@4x4falcon.com:
Easily fixed then.
Upgrade the road to your trace.

Get Firefox if you have not already got it, then get the Scrapbook
add on, then copy the cached version to a local scrapbook, just in
case it changes again.
Might not make much difference, but every little bit helps.

So to this end I just filed a bug with JOSM asking to get multiple
credentials stored and some easy way to switch between them.
To me this means multiple username and password combinations, all with
the same OSM site.
I think you should spell out that we need JOSM to be able to be used

Hi Marcus
Unfortunately OSM has recently forced a change to it's licence agreement to
a version where attribution is not required on any copies that are made of
OSM data,
probably to appease Microsoft and Bing maps who will then be free to charge
for these maps, with no attribution at all.
I also tried to use Potlatch on http://fosm.org, but using Firefox on Kubuntu.
I get a map OK, but I do not know where it is, and there is no obvious
way of changing the location you are looking at.
There is a GPS button that does not work, this might be the problem.
Also there is no obvious way

2) It's clear that some people cannot access fosm.org even when it is up. I
think this is because some browsers don't support xslt. More information

OK, i tried fosm.org, it worked.

Irony is when you buy a shiny new GPS loaded with OSM data, only to
find out that you need to pay a license fee to be able to update the
map.
Gotta love that new license.
