I think you can just move my old edits for the areas mentions to my new account.
This is my new account
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/James%20Michael%20DuPont

this is my old account
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/h4ck3rm1k3

I would also be willing to help do this myself. Maybe if I could
finally get an account on the dev box.
here are my ssh keys

thanks
mike
