OpenStreetMap
Just saw some JOSM news
>2011-05-16 (4081, 4085, 4086)
>New Follow Line feature to ease drawing of adjacent areas. (similar to Potlatch 2's "F" shortcut)
>Search (and Filter) can query closed ways now, and those enclosing a certain minimum and maximum area. (Keywords: closed; areaSize:MIN-MAX or areaSize:MAX, in m²)
>The download Object... feature now accepts a list of ids.
Can't wait for the next stable release into debian/unstable. If these features work as advertised they will be big time savers for common tasks of mine. Particularly making a new way which shares the nodes as another and downloading a bunch of osm objects given a list of ids.
Thanks to those who contributed these features into JOSM!

You shouldn't wait for the debian release. JOSM is really easy to "install". Simply download the jar and do 'java -jar josm.jar' :)
I have learned the hard way that many debain packages (even in testing) are painfully old. Just recently I wasted close to an hour using the outdated mkgmap package. (yes, should have checked the version earlier)

No need to wait for a official release or debian package at all I just use this script:
~/ > cat bin/josm
#!/bin/bash
TARGETDIR=$HOME/bin/jar
pushd .
cd $TARGETDIR
wget -N http://josm.openstreetmap.de/download/josm-latest.jar
popd
java -Xmx512M -jar $TARGETDIR/josm-latest.jar $*

Speaking of which, somebody should update the wiki on this topic: JOSM/Linux#Debian page. I wrote some vague stuff there. Is someone on top of the situation with the packaged version of JOSM these days?

Thanks. I know I can run the jar from openstreetmap.de, but for multiple reasons I prefer the Debian version. Some good folks keep the debian packages up to date with the JOSM tested releases, so once these features make it into the tested JOSM, I should see them.
