Hi
I'm thrilled developement goes on in good speed and central issues
like conflict resolution have been already touched.
Unfortunatelly end user documentation stays far behind. While simpler
functions can be documented by experienced users, I fear the field of
conflict resolution in JOSM is a
?
Regards
Karl

Perhaps it would help if there was a way in JOSM to link from each
dialog / logical part of the UI to the associated documentation page.
Then you could always click Help (for this dialog) to get at the

Till now I was not able to convince one single person to really update
JOSM online docs (with more than typos), so it seems doing that work is
not worth the effort.
I documented the whole of Audio mapping in detail for the JOSM help (and

No. All my experience shows that this is untrue. People either help or
they don't help.
This goes along with my experience but the interesting point is how to find
those who want to help. What do you have to do to attract people who would

Josm Docu isn't really important. most functions are self explaining.
What we really need is to understand what Josm does with the data and how
this working with the API and the whole OSM database. Conflict resolution or
history functionality are such topics where good docu or tutorials can help.

Absolute nonsense. Just look at the comments new people make - they are
overwhelmed and confused by JOSM. It's only self explaining if either

You really need no programmer to write documentation.

My problem in the last months was that the development was too fast to even
catch up with the idea how things work. With a couple of bugs impossible.
