It's not really pretty though. Was this what you designed?
Especially the use of * to make these boxes is IMHO not good wiki

It was intended for the JOSM Wiki:

It should look better over there ;-)

Cut down larger changes into some smaller ones and the spam filter wont 
stop you.


I increased the positive points a bit, so it may now also work without 
splits. That a wiki admin is filtered by spam filter is a bug in spam 
filter I think. I will have to look at it.

Re: [josm-dev] WikiStart

2012-04-03 Thread Paul Hartmann
The new design for the main page is good, I would simplify the list of
download options even more:

 
 * OS independent
 * Windows installer
 * Mac OS Package
(and maybe the webstart option, but I'm not sure it needs to be
recommended that much)
-> other [[Download]] options
 

Then move all other options to the separate Download page. There is no
need to link to the latest development version from the main page. On
the separate page, there is more room for explanation.

Here is HTML/table layout I did earlier, but never finished, maybe you
find it useful:

{{{
#!table style="border:none;"
 {{{#!tr 
  {{{#!td align=left  valign=top style="background:#eee; font-size:
120%; padding: 0px 15px 15px 13px; border: 2px ridge #aaa"
[[Image(source:trunk/images/download.png, valign=middle, link=)]]
Download [/josm-tested.jar josm-tested.jar] (version
[[Version(tested)]])[[br]]
{{{#!span style="font-size: 83%"
recommended version, all platforms ([wiki:InstallNotes#Running how to run])

I think it should. On the FOSSGIS I met a few people using a very
outdated version of JOSM (half to one year old) because they didn't care
about updating. This comes for free when using Web Start. Are there
disadvantages?

Are there any usage statistics "tested vs. latest"? When sticking to the
table, I'd keep the row for the latest version as it shows the current
revision number and may be useful for some people.

That did the trick. I could create a new page at once without entering

There are people using much older versions (1759 is from 2009), see below :-)

About 50% use tested, about 40% use older tested versions. About 5% use 
latest (or previous latest :-).

The problems I remembered with Java Web Start seem to be outdated. In
fact the cache/update mechanism is quite nice. The only disadvantage I
can see at the moment is missing console output and worse desktop
integration.

When we have Autoupdate options for the Windows installer, this should
significantly reduce the outdated versions in use.

I'm not insisting on this. But if someone isn't interested in all the
options and just wants to use the software, the layout should be clear
and simple.

* -> Webstart
Win -> Win installer
Mac -> Mac installer
(Ubuntu -> Ubuntu package)
Other -> jar file

In the current draft (v. 5) I'm missing the link to the advanced
Download options. This line could contain the "latest" version. E.g.

"Current development version (5161), Ubuntu package repository and other
Download download options."

I would like to have a webstart for the latest josm. I build it for my

I'd prefer to keep the history of the old WikiStart over the new (short)
history. I doubt there is a way to merge both histories, so copy&paste
it is.

Done. The new Wiki start page is live:
  http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/WikiStart

I guess, the temporary page should be deleted …
