Merkaartor should include the language the user is using in its created_by=* string. Both JOSM and Potlatch do this now. I.e.:

created_by=Merkaartor 0.13 (en)

instead of the current:

created_by=Merkaartor 0.13

As is currently the case. Knowing the language helps localization efforts. Seeing what locales are being used and need work and if perhaps users are avoiding Merkaartor because it's not available in their language (but JOSM or Potlatch are).

Here are created_by=* strings in JOSM's and Potlatch's format for comparison:

Potlatch 1.3c (live is)
JOSM/1.5 (1971 SVN is)
