Hello Tom,

thank you for looking into this issue.

The signature is computed inside the oauth library. It does all the 
magic internally. I just pass my data in. the $changesetRequest contains 
the XML of the changeset to create.

It worked in the past. Now I added the Content-Type header. I can't tell 
what it is using internally to compute the signature. I saw the 
content-type in the header and changed into text/xml as this was working 
for JOSM and sounds a lot better than what was sent before.

$ret = $oauth->fetch("$api_url/changeset/create", $changesetRequest, 
OAUTH_HTTP_METHOD_PUT, array('Content-Type'=>'text/xml'));

Could it happen that the signature verification on the server is now 
more strict so a thing that worked in the past is now failing?
