Hi Andy,
I did the manually via JOSM.
OK, but:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mechanical_Edit_Policy
contains "this policy covers a wider range of edits, including not only
edits made by bots but also imports and any edits that have a mechanical
component, e.g. a search-and-replace operation using the XAPI and an
editor;".
In cases such as this a previous mapper will have chosen the tags they
used for a reason (such as the impression that they gained from an
on-site survey). It may be that once you've discussed it with them that
they think "landuse=port" is totally appropriate, but it may be (for
reasons that they know, because they've been there, but you don't,
because you haven't), that it's not.
I found different uses (port,port_terminal and variations) and merged
together. In Europe I was using it mostly, and migrated to the formal
proposal[0] [1], the others were:
- one in USA which fitted my proposal and I adjusted it
- the others were delimitations of port subareas and fitted the
definition (were untouched by some time and I tried to improve the
geometry).
I'd like to move the set of proposals to voting one of these days, but
haven't had the time yet.
Cheers,
Andy

Where the tagging was changed have people in the affected areas been
notified in some way (e.g. by a message to a country mailing list)? I
don't see anything in the links to suggest that that has happened.
Cheers,
Andy
