Checking edit history

How can I check the timeline of edits in a particular area? For example, I want to see the history of editing in X city or a selected polygon. Would be better if I can get access to the user list as well. TIA

I'm not sure about city/polygon specifically, but start here:

The history will give you changeset id's, then you can look up the author information of each changeset.

The whodidit-tool is my favourite to see what's going on in an area

http://simon04.dev.openstreetmap.org/whodidit/

Browse to your area
Click get RSSlink
Draw a box
Click "RSS link" and you have a pretty feed to look at

It might be useful to filter your own user at this is usually boring to look at (put "-USERNAME" in the user-box.
