[OSM-talk] Non-map-based OSM editor

[john at jfeldredge.com]

If you think Java on Windows is bad, you should see Java on a BlackBerry Storm.  It leaks memory badly enough that, if I am actively using the phone, I have to reboot it every hour to two hours due to running out of memory.  RIM's API doesn't provide a way to track memory usage on a per-process basis, only a way to determine the total free memory system-wide.  I plan to switch to an Android phone soon.

C'mon now, if I wanted to troll I would have talked shit about PL1.
But in fact I like Potlatch.  PL1 is by far my favorite of the 4.  If
only it had support for FOSM and USGS high res ortho, I probably
wouldn't use anything else.

I wonder if the issue might be that I use Windows.  Do most JOSMers
use Windows, or some other OS?  I'm sure Java is especially sucky on
Windows.
