Why have you been using www.openstreetmap.com? This has never been the  
default in JOSM, as far as I'm aware.

You need to be using either http://www.openstreetmap.org/api or http://api.openstreetmap.org/api 
  for it to work now that all other domains (including osm.org and  
openstreetmap.com) redirect to www.openstreetmap.org.

Maybe we need to add this to http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/StartupPageSource 
  ?
