Before thinking about working on an Android OSM editor I recommend you create an OSM account, open up an editor and add some data in your local area. Once you're comfortable adding data, I recommend you explore using the development API to retrieve and modify OSM data with command line tools like "curl" and "wget". Once you have that experience it'll be easier to understand what's involved in writing an Android OSM editor. -Ian
