I guess I just volunteered ;-). Happy to help. I can consolidate any disparate sources of tags and start putting together a proposal for new map features. I'll take a look at those UNSDI-T xls', the JOSM presets, the current Humanitarian tags on the wiki and anything else people send my way. I'll start with a spreadsheet that organizes everything I can find and post it out to the hot and tagging mailing lists.
