[mkgmap-dev] when I use SPLITTER to IMPORT om.pbf files into JOSM I get error

Fri Feb 26 06:38:25 GMT 2016

Hi Gerd,

I also struggled around with this incompatibility splitter/JOSM. I used 
XML-files, but JOSM does not support API V0.5 for quite a while now, and 
splitter still produces v0.5 XML files.

Dirty Workaround: I open all yml-file in an editor, changed Line 2 into "osm 
version='0.6'" and add "version='1'" to all id-instances. For VIM: :%s/ id='/ 
version='1' id='/g

Maybe that's also the reason why JOSM doesn't like the PBF-files...

Regards,
Michael
