I can see advantages to either format. A JOSM format allows you to edit
before uploading while a OsmChange format is more portable, but requires
command line tools.

I suspect JOSM would be easier for most to deal with but I have no strong
views, not having a smart phone or using Vespucci.

Speaking for myself, it's been good to see a GSoC project with regular
communication with the community with results that are likely to be used.
