I've just sent an enquiry to the AGIMO asking if this is true because the LWG has given no proof.
Just like others I would like to know if the AGIMO has the authority to do a blanket license grant on other agencies data, or if they have actually received this special permission from each agency who's data is on data.gov.au. Thirdly if this is true, then I feel this is shockingly poor behaviour of the AGIMO. To grant special permissions exclusively to one party, which is made even worse when done behind closed doors... I would very much welcome less restrictive licensing of government owned data, but to give special privilege to OSM but no one else isn't very good behaviour of a Government in my humble opinion. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
