Dave - super awesome. As I said on IRC the other week, but I'll repeat here for all - I think dumping the addressing for all 3,000 counties and then letting people import them one by one will be the best way to do it.
Another random thought - should the addressing ways be one long way with two nodes per block, or lots of two node ways? My immediate preference is for the former...? Also - the ways will be deplaced 90 degress to the road centerline to push them to the edge of the road I assume - but you also need to 'pull in' the end nodes too so they are not laying on top of the cross streets at each end, if you see what I mean? Yours &c.
