[HOT] Installing JOSM on Mac OS

[Clifford Snow]

I emailed the user with instructions to upgrade Java on OS X Leopard.
Basically a special app is needed to install Java on older systems.
Pacifist, www.charlessoft.com, has an app to install the jdk7.x.dmg file
downloaded from Oracle.

If he has problems, I work with him to get it working.
