  Hi,

   The street will require a name   (tag  name=  ), since the example above 
has no name.

  More details -

  In order to generate individual house numbers, you will also need to get 
the latest JOSM-tested version (2561) at 
http://josm.openstreetmap.de/josm-tested.jar , then update all plugins to 
get AddressInterpolation Version 18874 .

 To use:

    Select the Address interpolation way just as before.
    Then press    Shift + select the street.
    Both the address interpolation way and street should now be highlighted 
as selected.

Then Tools -> Address Interpolation

  Be sure to check the box "Convert way to individual house numbers".

PS.

  About Un-named streets.   I use the name to distinguish between the street 
and address interpolation way (although I could instead look for highway= 
xxx ).     It would be useful to associate the houses with the street using 
a relation as you are creating them.   Currently I require a name to 
proceed, but there may be valid cases of unnamed streets.    If you have 
unnamed streets, I can change it to work using an associated street 
relation, but  I'll need to think about this a bit since that will create 
many anonymous street relations that are hard to distinguish in the editor 
or even in Geo-Navigating applications.
