[josm-dev] New plugin development - wiki issues

[Marián Kyral]

Hi,
I wan't to test some ideas on Tracer plugin (connect to different, vector 
based source - RUIAN). So I went through wiki page: http://josm.
openstreetmap.de/wiki/DevelopersGuide/DevelopingPlugins

I've fetched plugins svn, slightly updated the Tracer plugin and tried to 
build them. It failed - some utils missed. I had to build all plugins first,
then I was able to build it. Maybe this should be mentioned in Wiki.

Then I decided to fork the Tracer plugin. I have copied the Tracer folder, 
renamed it. Now, it builds fine, but then it fails on REVISION.XML.

Hi can I pass it without commit?

Note: I have only basic knowledge about java.
Note2: I saw there is Tracer2 plugin - nice work. maybe I'll get some 
inspiration there as well.
