[OSM-dev] Representing differences between sets of OSM data

Hi,

>From the looks of it there are at least three ways of representing
changes to OSM data:

1. The format used by JOSM (adds action=(modify|delete)) to entities
2. The format used by the planetdiff (used add/delete entities)
3. The osmChange format used by osmosis (can't find docs on this)

Now, I don't really want to have to support all of these at once, so
does anyone have any recommendations about which one is the best to
use, and if there are any conversion programs that can convert between
them.

Thanks in advance,
