Hi Claire,
I had no luck importing geojson files into JOSM, I have the latest
version of JOSM and the plugins, including the OpenData Plugin.
However, I just looked and there is a plugin that makes use of the
opendata plugin called:
josm-geojson
And it seems to work great. No idea how long it has been there, but
there it is :)
yay!
Cheers,
blake
