Dear Michel,

Bravo.  The first run of the border import is a wonderful improvement,
even if imperfect.  Thank you for doing it.  

For the re-upload, may I suggest these changes?

source = "name of your conversion script and version" # then make it
available on the wiki / SVN as GPL?  

created_by = "name of your upload script and version" # then make it
available on the wiki / SVN as GPL?  

nat_ref does not apply in my opinion.  OSM expects ref for highway
shields.  Use a new tag like geobase:nat_ref = "nat_ref#" so that it is
"namespaced" and does not break other uses of nat_ref.  

Use geobase:uuid = "uuid#"  where geobase provides them.

Best regards,
Richard
