    8 Clearly you haven't used Git (or any other DVCS) to any significant extent. I use Git for all my projects at work, many of which have just myself as the only committer, so the benefits are not just for large complicated projects with many committers. Biggest benefits to me are lightweight branches, the stash, the speed, and offline committing. And yes, GitHub/Gitorious/etc. are a big plus for some projects.

    1010> The main JOSM contributors cannot maintain your plugin because we have no write access to your repository. JOSM does not have a stable plugin API. Fundamental classes are refactored quite often but all the SVN-plugins that break in the process are fixed by the team. In addition, you have to care for translations yourself and have to manage history handling for older JOSM versions. Having dependencies like with Don-vips opendata plugin gets significantly more complicated and there are various way how it can break.
