Hi martin,

please also see the other side's motivation: there is good reason not
to put meta data into the main database but on a changeset level,
You have to prove such a claim and then compare it to the "bad reasons not to"

http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/source#values
(There are roughly spoken more than 7 times cadastre source-tags than
there are for example source=bing tags)
A lot of good work isn't it ? and well identified !

Maybe someone of the French
community (or someone else) has the time and expertise to code an
extension for JOSM which would allow to change between multiple
accounts on the fly
I don't see reasons why we (french communities) should create that plugin
ourself. In open source software developement, those who look something as a
problem should fix it themself. We don't have problems with our way of doing
yet, the DWG has.

However, if someone comes with a JOSM patch to support changeset tags in an
extended .osm file format like :
<changeset_auto_applied_tags>
  <tag k="comment" v="This comes from an automated generated .osm file of
cadastre buildings and was (hopefully) improved by hand" />
  <tag k="source" v="Cadastre XXXX" />
</changeset_auto_applied_tags>

I'll be glad to correct, on my side, the building .osm file export toolchain
to include that.
Changeset tags are possible already as far as I know, and the API documentation agrees with my memory here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6#Tags

I used these e.g. for testing here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/13543537 (there are the rows about creation time, closing time, author and >> tags << (and bounding box).

To set these in josm use the corresponding tab in the upload dialog of JOSM. Predefined here is usually the created_by tag; and the changeset comment from the "default tab" goes to the changeset tags, too.

regards
Peter
