[Pkg-osm-maint] Bug#622973: pu: package josm/0.0.svn3376-1+squeeze1

[David Paleino]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu

Dear Release Team,
I'm writing to you to ask for a possible p-u upload for JOSM.

OpenStreetMap is pursuing a process to change the license of its data.
Tomorrow it will enter Phase III, i.e. a contributor has to explicitely accept
or decline the new license [0], otherwise he'll get a 403 error [1].

The suggested fix [2] was to improve the error message, including the response
body. Upstream did this [3], and released a new snapshot (4021, currently in
sid).

I'm attaching the backported patch.

Thanks,
David
