If someone wanted to upload public domain, state road centerline data to OSM, what procedures could they take?  It seems like what we would like to do is overwrite Tiger data but preserve user contributed data.  I did see an example of using an opensource GIS plugin (RoadMatcher) that compares road networks (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Geobase_NRN_-_OSM_Map_Feature) before uploading road data.  Are there other examples of procedures people have used or best practices to bulk upload road centerline data?
