This page provides an user-friendly changelog for the [wikitr:/Releases stable releases] of JOSM. Its granularity lies between the contents of the [wikitr:/StartupPage] and the [/log SVN log messages].
* This list contains mainly enhancements and changes.
* Bug fixes are seldom listed here (although a major part of each release are bug fixes). See the link ''SVN log messages of milestone YY.MM'' at the end of each chapter to search for fixed bugs.
* Changes of external resources ([wikitr:/Presets Presets], [wikitr:/Styles Map Paint Styles], [wikitr:/Rules Validator Rules], [wikitr:/Maps Imageries] and [wikitr:/Plugins Plugins]) are not listed here.
