 It seems to be a bug inside the Potlatch function "join nodes" (key J).
 When I stick together two (or more) areas by joining nodes, sometimes the
 OSM inspector tool tells me, I have created duplicate nodes in one of the
 resulting ways.
 f.e.
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1728680163
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1706551424

 I can reproduce it as follow:
 Way 1 contains node 1a and node 1b. Way 2 contains node 2.
 I join node 2 with node 1a. Later I join the resulting node with 1b.
 After uploading I will get the duplicate node in way.

 Normally this situation will not happen so often, but at edges of three or
 more areas you can have a lot of nodes and it is almost impossible to take
 care for all ...

 Best regards
