http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Map_Features#Addresses I usually add addr:housenumber, addr:street (because otherwise Nominatim and other parsers don't find address properly, you have to connect house to the street). There are another way to use relation, which I haven't started yet to do, but I plan to. If you add addr:*, it is enough so it can be found in openstreetmap.org search.
