There was a Mapping party last November, and we all uploaded GPS public
traces tagged with Stratford-upon-avon, iirc, to OSM - so going to the
traces library & searching on that tag should net a good haul of GPS
data, and it covers the whole area.

You can then download them as gpx files & play with them.

While i'm sure this is a wonderful tool, what we are looking for is to take
the "downloaded traces" layer in josm, and make it (just the dots, without
lines if posible) into a fully fledged map layer.

The tiles will be tiny, with a few white dots on a black background.

We want to be able to capitalise on the the ability to download crowdsourced
gps traces in systems that only understand map tiles.

Thanks for that, but bearing in mind I am not a programmer, how does it 
help me? :-\

I don't know the ID for any tracks there may or may not be in the area i 
(may) want to map, and I can't find a way in OSM to reveal any GPS trace 
ID other than a GPS Trace filename, (not even with my own traces).

if there is a way to reveal the ID, please let me know.

Thanks,

+1 for that; it's a real pain when people don't include source data, especially 
for rural areas, and whilst it is possible to view the traces (if any) in 
potlatch, it's a long winded way of finding out what still needs surveying.
