Does anyone know if this fellow…

consulted the imports list/anyone before doing his imports? I can't find
any record of discussion.
The City of Albuquerque has a great public-domain address point dataset.
Except, it uses a different schema than OSM and is *worthless* to import
as-is into OSM. Which unfortunately hasn't stopped people. See:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1813288475
Richard Weait previously removed this same dataset back in December:

I'm waiting on the original mapper to respond, but I don't think there's
any other way to proceed other than a revert.
