Hi Simon, In relation to the "Legit", yes, your not the first one to raise this question. I would be happy if you or someone within OSM community can provide an example of Legit or Not Legit topo map as a source, if not for this case then at least for the future.
Regarding the data itself, of course I still have the SHP File, I do fully intend to start complementing OSM for Kosova and the region once the Dev. Seed is done with the new tool they're working on. I think it'll make it a lot easier then.
