Description
I tried to download the list of plugins within the preferences window. JOSM failed to load the list due to unknown reasons. JOSM states that it downloaded plugin information from one site (http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Plugins was online), but does not show the list of plugins.
Its not possible to open the preferences window again. This even persisted after JOSM was closed and restarted.
The error also happens with release 1132 which is marked as more or less stable.
To make JOSM start again you need to remove the settings. To do so (and loose your settings) proceed as follows:
German Windows: Delete C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\[username]\Anwendungsdaten\JOSM
English Windows: Delete C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\JOSM
Linux: Delete ~/.josm
