Description

Seen on dev mailing list:

The LWG has made some recommendations about what we need to change on the web site and API to comply with future European data protection rules. On the whole this boils down to "logged-in users get the same stuff they get today, but guests who are not logged in will not see details about users".

The detailed LWG recommendations are here.

List of what Frederik believes needs to be changed on the API and web site, here.

For JOSM it means we have to check the various anonymous API calls don't provoke any crash when data is missing. I doubt it :)

GDPR enters into force on 25th May. So we must release 18.05 before that.
