[OSM-dev] Osmosis diffs: "delete" shows the wrong user?

[Hakan Tandogan]

Hi,


I'm watching the areas I'm interested in by downloading daily excerpts
from osmxapi and building a diff via osmosis.

For the delete actions, the diffs show the wrong user. In one example
node, the user "djanda" deleted a node, but the diffs show the last user
that manipulated node, in this case, "uboot".

Is this intentional, does anyone depend on this behaviour? If not, I'll
try to fix it one of those days...


Regards,
Hakan


Part of the diff:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<osmChange version="0.5" generator="Osmosis 0.24.3">
  ...
  <delete version="0.5" generator="Osmosis 0.24.3">
    <node id="23016614" timestamp="2008-07-04T04:29:45Z" user="uboot"
lat="35.3254076" lon="33.3425131"/>
    ...
  </delete>
</osmChange>

The node history from
http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/node/23016614/history :

<osm version="0.5" generator="OpenStreetMap server">
  ...
  <node id="23016614" lat="35.3254076" lon="33.3425131" user="uboot"
visible="true" timestamp="2008-04-03T14:47:02+01:00"/>
  <node id="23016614" lat="35.3254076" lon="33.3425131" user="djanda"
visible="false" timestamp="2008-07-03T14:19:56+01:00"/>
</osm>
