JOSM development in the last year

[Vincent Privat]

I'm surprised by the Windows/Linux ratio.
I always noticed a quite stable ratio around 70% Windows, 20% Linux, 10%
Mac (+/- 5% margin).
Isn't just that more Linux people used JOSM during the holidays than
Windows people? Such an increase looks strange otherwise.
