Are the users uploading the tracks?
If so they would need to be in gpx format.
Can a version of
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:NMEA>
be made into a windows batch script?

I believe that there is already a ticket for this in trac.
<http://josm.eigenheimstrasse.de/ticket/27> is something similar, but
not quite the same as it is looking for live NMEA import.
Please add your information in a new ticket, so that it doesn't get
