JOSM is an editor for [http://www.openstreetmap.org OpenStreetMap] written in Java 1.5.
The current version supports stand alone GPX tracks, GPX track data from the OSM database and existing nodes, line segments and metadata tags from the OSM database.

'''Changeover to API 0.4 on Saturday 05 May 2007''' - JOSM seems to work, but there is a bug where, when you download overlapping data in multiple steps, JOSM thinks that there is a lot of changes to upload. This is being worked on. 

To run JOSM with the new API, use the JOSM preferences editor or any external editor on josm/preferences and add

osm-server.version=0.4

(That setting defaults to 0.3 in the current JOSM version and thus will
likely not be present in your preferences.)
