Hi, I just want to say that the import of addresses in Norway has been completed (~100%). The status can be found here: http://osm.beebeetle.com/addrnodeimportstatus.php
There are also some screenshots there showing the location of all addresses. In my opinion, it went very well. There are two remaining things that will have to be sorted out in the maintenance phase: - Certain address nodes where there are multiple letters following the house number are placed at exactly the same point. They were imported anyway. A plan is to make a script or something that finds these nodes so that we can work on assigning them to the location of the correct door of the buildings. Maybe someone knows about such a script/web service already that can give us this info? - There are still many missing roads according to the address view of OSM inspector. Now as we have the addresses in OSM, it's much easier to spot the missing roads. These are long-term tasks to complete, and we are happy to now have addresses available in all applications using OSM data. Every now and then (every 3 months or so), "Kartverket" will release updates to the address node data set and then the plan is to use http://osm.beebeetle.com/addrnodeimportstatus.php to keep track of the differences and then OSM up to date (by manually doing the changes). Let me know if you see any other significant issues.
