I'm running a sister project of OSM, OpenAviationMap.
In it we're collecting open aviation data from around the world.
Some governments hand out open xml data about their airspaces.
We'we created several parsers/converters that make these data sources into OSM xml. This is easy for first time uploads, we create osm files with negative id's and action="create" and upload with JOSM.

But now we want to update the data that we've already uploaded. Does anyone have experience with this in the OSM community?

My initial thought is to generate some unique id that makes it possible to merge features that already are in the database with the ones provided by XML but before we over engineer something it would be nice to hear your two cents =)
