This site

* This site is a combined online help and bug tracking system for JOSM and JOSM plugins
* No login is required to use this site (neither for reading nor for changes to wiki or bug tracker)
* A login has following advantages:
 * The JOSM applet can store settings on the server
 * Mails are sent for changes in own bug tracker tickets (This is possible also by entering an e-mail as username in the tickets, but you are unable to change that later and the address is openly visible).
 * Page settings are remembered (e.g. input field size and a lot of other stuff)
* Logins which have no e-mail address or which have not been used at least once are automatically deleted.
* The login to edit the OpenStreetMap database has nothing to do with this server!
* NOTE: The secured HTTPS version of this site uses a [wiki:ServerCertificate self-signed certificate] with 26:8B:4D:CB:AD:04:E7:50:EC:94:F8:34:83:CE:7C:06:8D:FD:61:3D as SHA1 fingerprint.BRYou need to [wiki:ServerCertificate accept] this certificate as valid to silence the warnings of your browser.
