Hi Chris, thank you for asking out to this mailing list.
Are you familiar and experienced with mapping in Germany – both as a couch mapper and on the ground? Are you experienced with JOSM (sorry but for fixing mistakes, this is required)?
Have you compared the datasets with OSM yet? Even if the license were incompatible, a comparison of OSM and third-party datasets could point out where mappers can improve OSM using on the ground survey other, permitted sources.
Do we discuss about five hospitals/schools/… or 200? Which dataset is more up-to-date? OSM or the "official" dataset?Please mind that the German community users https://community.openstreetmap.org (Discourse) as its main forum for discussions. Any import which affects Germany has to be discussed there. In order to have a productive discussion on Discourse, you should have answers to the questions above when you post your plan there.

Licensing wise, at the moment each dataset is published with a different license. Judging from the compatibility matrix[3], some of them are not compatible, though for example Wiki/Contributors[4] states that in case of e.g. using CC-BY 4.0 i's already possible with special waivers. But I think this will easier to decide on a case-by-case basis, when I share the sources of the original data and the prepared changeset-data.
Any import plan has to point out which dataset is going to be used and which license the dataset has.
Quesions:* Where or how do I upload/share the changesets for review with you, before uploading it to OSM?
It might be more efficient to check if it is an import at all or an organised editing campaign might be more efficient (discussion and documentation is required as well).
Best regards Michael
