There's been a bit of discussion of this on the talk-au lists so far; but the data itself won't be released until February.
Schema etc is reasonably well documented and some folks will have worked with the non-free data, so there's a fair idea of the scope/scale/accuracy of data. Whats not yet clear is the best plan for merging with existing data - sprinkling 14 million floating address points in one giant changeset isn't a terribly good idea. http://qa.poole.ch/ is worth taking a look at; to understand where we have gaps in even road naming - generally of more use than address points. If you'd like to help plan what's possible, feel free to start a wiki page describing the data and possible imports in a priority list; or to continue the discussion thread on talk-au.
