I'm going to be camping in Oregon in a week. OSM didn't seem to include any
campsites in that area so I downloaded positions from the USFS and a private
operator and imported them using ogr2ogr, gpsbabel and josm.

The USFS data is public domain. I updated
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Potential_Datasources#US_Forest_Service

For the data I got from the google map at
http://www.hoodoo.com/oregon_home.htm I emailed hoodoo and got this reply:

Our map comes from Google and I doubt that you need my permission, but if
you do, you have it.
Hope things go well,

Do I need to ping this list for future tiny imports like this? Sorry for not
asking first. I wanted to make sure I could do the import before asking and
before I knew it the data was uploaded. ;-)

If there is a problem look for nodes with tag source_ref=
