Package: josm Severity: wishlist Hey David
As sooner or later Debian 7 will be released, it would be nice to have a backport version of josm as its development is quite fast and it does not fit that well with Debian Release Strategy. Sorry, but I would always advice people to use josm-tested or even latest and not this package. I could live with a three month delay but everything older is quite outdated regarding josm's development. Do not get me wrong. I appreciate your work and I know backporting is even more work. My intend is to get more people using this package instead of the all-in-one precompiled .jar from josm.openstreetmap.de but I have to admit that myself is rather using a hackish bash script to update from JOSM than your official packages. Using the wheezy (testing) package under squeezy did work quite well, with only some libs from wheezy but I prefer to point user of stable to backports rather than testing/sid. Thanks and cheers Colliar
