did you do that? I'm curious to look at addresses near me and help import

Hi All,
I'm planning on converting these to OSM format in the coming hours and
dividing them up into chunks of some size that can be relatively
easily checked by humans.
I'll post to the list and to that page with the chunks later.

MapQuest is providing several address files that contain user-provided
latitude and longitude locations across the world. Our users provided
these exact locations to us so that they could be mapped correctly on
our MapQuest maps.
There are currently three (3) main files - one for the United States,
one for Canada and one for Europe. More information can be found on
our wiki page:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/MapQuest/Critical_Addresses
We didn't want to just import these addresses directly into OSM, but
wanted them to be available to anyone that wanted to have them. To be
clear:
1. these addresses are user provided
2. there is a high degree of ground-truth from these users
3. they WANTED to be in the data and be correctly mapped
4. we've checked with our lawyers, and yes, you can have them -
UNENCUMBERED!
