Well, it depends. What format are you using for the data?

Use this mailing list for general discussions, and the dev@ mailing list for 
more technical things (like format conversions).

Putting that data in a OSM-friendly format should be easy. Please have a look 
at the wiki page on the OSM API (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/API) 
Or get JOSM, and have a look at the format of the saved files. Or just 
publish the WPs in GPX format and somebody here will take the work of 
converting and uploading the data.


Oh, and be welcome!
