Recently I noticed that gpsbabel still uses version='0.5' string in its osm.cc (1). Latest josm for example complains now when it does not find version='0.6' string.

It's been discussed on the josm-dev mailing list - see the discussion either side of this post:

I use gpsbabel not very often and don't know about other osm users but
there might be some .cc developpers which might want to check their code (1).

(1) https://code.google.com/p/gpsbabel/source/browse/trunk/gpsbabel/osm.cc

I had no idea that gpsbabel supported a basic set of Garmin to OSM translations - sounds useful (though I, like many mappers I suspect, misuse Garmin waypoint symbols for different real-world things, so this osm.cc would need a lot of customisation if I was to use it as a way to get waypoints into a JOSM layer with most of the right OSM tags).

The change that you linked to was just to just change 0.5 to 0.6 and so should have no ill-effects, but the josm-dev list link above suggests other recent changes to the waypoint handling code in JOSM, so there may be still some visible differences there.

Cheers,

Andy
