If anybody knows any federal government datasources that would be useful, the Government 2.0 taskforce is looking for data sources that the community would find useful but currently aren't available for technical reasons [1]. This will form part of a series of contests to encourage innovation. I already suggested the Postcode boundaries being released with a more open licence, although it's hard to tell if that's due to technical reasons or a risk adverse culture.
