[josm-dev] Lean JOSM II

[Dirk Stöcker]

Hello,

it seems Frederik dropped Lean-JOSM after we did improve the translation 
situation, as the size gain was not as big anymore. Nevertheless JOSM is 
growing and growing, so the general idea is still useful.

I implemented a "Lean JOSM II" on the JOSM server.

The links
http://josm.openstreetmap.de/josm-tested.jar
and
http://josm.openstreetmap.de/josm-latest.jar
now support parameters.

The only parameter currently is "lang=". When e.g. called like
"http://josm.openstreetmap.de/josm-latest.jar?lang=de",
you get a approx. 1.1 MB smaller file only containing german language.

I would like to know if this reliable before I announce it on the 
webpage.

The downloader can only remove files from the jar file. So when somebody 
has other space-saving ideas realizable by simple file stripping, please 
tell me and I may implement it.

Ciao
