Check out LINZ2OSM for another project that has a large number of datasets and 
a distributed (small at the moment) workforce.

http://linz2osm.openstreetmap.org.nz

The tool is open sourced and provides a nice way to export sections that people 
can work on and mark as done when they are finished. It also has a powerful 
tagging solution for complex source data. We don't do anything around updates 
to data yet.
