[HOT] Pre-disaster imagery of Pakistan Floods now available from SPOT

[Klaus Hartl]

Shoaib, was ist possible that your JOSM projection doesn't correspond to 
that one of the wms request? compare the EPSG codes at:
Edit -> Preferences... -> Map Settings -> Map Projection -> Projection 
method: WGS84 Geographic (EPSG 4326)

Cheers
klaus
