if you have it in a .osm file then there shouldn't be any reason why you
can't restart
JOSM pointed at OHM and bring it into the system in the usual way. you
will probably
need to do some fiddling with the ids (changing them to negative values
so that they
come in as new nodes and ways and get OHM ids assigned.)
