In JOSM, use select-all (crtl-a) then look at the list of authors in
the author panel (alt-b).  This will give you a list of accounts that
were the most-recent to edit objects in your loaded data.  The license
details plugin will show you tainted objects.  Even if they were
subsequently edited.

Ian Dees excellent deep diff tool will show you the history of a
single object.  http://osm.mapki.com/history/

I see the problem.  You left an extra "e" in your whisky. :-)

Reconciling the data with ODbL before the changeover is preferable.
While scripts can remove tainted data, it is difficult to make a
script care about the resulting beauty of the map like a local
contributor does.  Contacting idle mappers and having them consider
CT/ODbL is helpful.  Replacing the data with a new survey is wonderful
and updates things that haven't been checked since they were first
added.

No joke.
