[OSM-talk] Potlatch 3 for desktop

:-) :-)

I have just downloaded both Windoze and Mac version and both install 
flawlessly - the Mac version is actually a zip rather than raw .app, so 
I think the install instructions needs tweaking slightly?

I felt my first Potlatch 3 edit should be symbolic, so living in Sweden 
and learning of Richard's tastes in music I have slightly refined the 
outline of the Abba Museum (Abbamuseet) in Stockholm. Also flawless 
execution and just like I'm used to.

As a major Potlatch 1 and 2 user for many years, I very much appreciate 
the effort put into this and look forward to continuing use. Thanks Richard!
