<p>Hi all,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I've changed splitter to write fake metadata (version, author, timestamp) <br>
</p>
<p>when using pbf output format. The change in the output files is minimal,</p>
<p>and it allows to open the output files in JOSM without using a tool like</p>
<p>osmconvert.</p>
<p>I can also change the output format of the xml files (osm.gz) to api 0.6. <br>
</p>
<p>This would mean that each element (node, way, relation) gets an additional <br>
</p>
<p><version=1> string which increases the compressed file size by 2% and the <br>
</p>
<p>uncompressed xml file by ~ 12% , see attached patch splitter_josm_v1.patch .<br>
</p>
<p>Not sure if that makes sense ?<br>
</p>
