[HOT] Moving the focus to JOSM in mapathons

[john whelan]

I think if we suggest they download Java before arriving, josm-tested.jar
can be copied for a USB stick or local server ie laptop.  I think that
would save bandwidth and trying to download multiple copies at the same
time would mean delays.

Hopefully it works out.

Thanks John
