Hi Karl,
I am use 'osmosis-latest'/version 0.29 downloaded yesterday.

The problem may be that the source data files do not contain the bound
element itself, and therefore it might not be transfer to the output.

Source data is made with mkcntr2.pl (for contours) and OSM data requested
via XAPI with:
wget -O crowsnest.osm
http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.5/*[bbox=-115,49,-114,50]

Head of 'crowsnest.osm' is
--
<?xml version='1.0' standalone='no'?>
<osm version='0.5' generator='osmxapi: OSM Extended API'
xmlns:osmxapi='http://www.informationfreeway.org/osmxapi/0.5'
osmxapi:uri='/api/0.5/*%5bbbox=-115,49,-114,50%5d'

I am using osmosis to merge the OSM source with contours (after sorting
both) with the command
--
java -jar osmosis.jar --read-xml temp1.osm --read-xml temp2.osm --merge \
        --bb completeWays=yes top=50 bottom=49 left=-115 right=-114 \
        --write-xml temp.osm
--

Head of 'temp.osm' is
--
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<osm version="0.5" generator="Osmosis 0.29">
  <node id="27611078" timestamp="2007-04-25T03:42:36Z" user="NytOwl"
lat="50.0015304" lon="-114.917867"/>

Hopefully it's something simple going wrong.
