This task was created for testing I believe.

Since you're looking to combine data from different sources I assume you know 
about the TB standards for addresses?  I think they're mentioned here:  
http://www.tbs-sct.gc.ca/pol/doc-eng.aspx?id=16553
I'm not sure how those standards would map to OSM and if all the elements are 
there.
Apols to the ca-talk this is probably more open data than anything else.

Kevin,

We would probably break it down in smaller chunks. We were thinking of a 
possible pilot with specific areas.
A tasking manager would be very helpful in we do it this way.

Hi Bjenk,

What type of information are you looking to add about buildings? Some data 
belongs in OSM while other attributes might be extraneous. Other people on this 
list will also add their opinion on this issue I'm sure. If it's something 
being done en masse, it's always best to take an abundance of caution to not 
upset people at the errors that might crop up.

If you'd like to break work down into smaller chunks, there are tasking 
managers available (including a Canada specific one) that help out with manual 
tasks.

Hello everyone,

Basically, what we would like to do is define a project for OSM to collect 
information about non-residential buildings.
We would like to popose a list of what would be collected. We were thinking of 
identifying specific areas to start with.

Cheers,
