Bug#765421: jmapviewer: Download bing logo via attribution XML at runtime?

[Vincent Privat]

I made the 1.04 release especially for this bug :/
There are very few other changes: one bug fix, optimized PNGs and code now
requiring Java 7, but that should not be a problem:
https://trac.openstreetmap.org/log/subversion/applications/viewer/jmapviewer?action=stop_on_copy&mode=stop_on_copy&rev=30760&stop_rev=30424

I am also releasing a new tested version of JOSM right now (7643). It's a
bugfix release that addresses major problems present in version 7588, this
version is meant for Jessie if possible...

Didn't know Freeplane was using JMapViewer however, it's great to see we're
not alone to use it after all :)
