Was at ceBIT this week and Helen Owens, the head of the Public Data Branch within the PM&C portfolio presented on the planned, more "open", release of the remaining 9 themes within the Foundation Spatial Data Framework (FSDF).
Earlier this year the National Addresses and Administrative boundaries (G-NAF)) [1] were released with some unresolved CC-BY4.0 Use Restrictions still outstanding (I'll pick that thread up in a separate email). The ANZLIC agency [2] will be releasing these further datasets over the coming months/years moving forward with separate upstream licences likely restricting osm usage somewhat. Just a heads up though that these are being prepared under a single "public, not open, data" branch of government so hopefully some applications across themes may be applied into osm with appropriate checks and balances etc. [1] - https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-au/2015-December/010721.html [2] - http://www.anzlic.gov.au/fsdf-themes-datasets
