I'd start here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines
(apologies if you've already read that, but I suspect that more than a
few readers of this list may not have done)
There are lots of things to think about in there, and that page is not
all about "reasons not to import" - lots of OSM communities worldwide
have decided to import data that it wouldn't be practical to obtain any
other way, but it's important that it's a community decision and not
just the decision of one person.
Cheers,
Andy
