[OSM-talk] saving GPX file on GPSr stripped out timestamp

[Farzaneh Sarafraz]

Actually, the points that are omitted by saving are those that are roughly
on a straight line. Enabling the option "draw lines between GPS points" in
JOSM preferences gives you something similar to the original tracklog.
However, I agree that this is not what you expect "save" to do.
