Description
Unfortunately I haven't got much useful information on the conditions under which this occurs, but here's the bug report anyway.
I've noticed that one of the longitudes of the changeset's bounding box is negative when all of the edits performed are in the eastern hemisphere.
Here's a couple of changesets that this has occurred on:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/2747368
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/2749543
Interestingly my changeset in between these two:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/2748920
was made from the same JOSM session, but doesn't suffer the -ve longitude issue.
JOSM version 2217.
This is not a JOSM problem or a bug in general. The API generates the a changeset box with all edited elements inside.
Have a look at you second changeset and especially at the relation 75880. This relation goes until London and its western child is at the position lat 51.4833 and lon -0.01023.
