I wish you and us all good luck with that waver endeavour.

It is great to have joined the au list!
Warin is correct in that CC by 4.0 licence does not allow data to be
added to OSM but as for our team we are going to be pushing for waver
on datasets particular related to trip planning. That would include
the transit stops and gtfs data.
We will of course keep you informed on any developments.
Cheers,
Sigurjon

As a supporter of OSM and a regular user of NSW public transport,
I am pleased to see this development.
I have a question in regard to use of TfNSW data in OSM. At the
moment the list of data sources on the Contributors page in the
OSM wiki does not include TfNSW data as an approved source.
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors#New_South_Wales_Government_data)
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors#New_South_Wales_Government_data>
If you represent the owners of the data, I presume there is no
copyright issue with any data you add to OSM. I am interested in
using NSW Transport data for (1) sourcing bus stop numbers and (2)
identifying rural railway stations which continue to offer
services as distinct from those that are now un-used. I am unsure
of the copyright restrictions on TfNSW data. Is it possible for
your branch to obtain/grant approval for OSM editors to use TfNSW
data and have this information added to the Contributors page of
the wiki?
Probably a different section. And the government may be in 'caretaker
mode' so things are unlikely to occur between now and the end of the
state election.
CC by 4.0 copyright does not let OSM use it... see
https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2017/03/17/use-of-cc-by-data/
If OSM obtains a specific waver then it may be possible to do a bulk
import of data into OSM using GTFS?
The GTFS stuff is preferable as it avoids human errors (though open to
software errors) and can be updated very rapidly.
Anyway - welcome to the Au talking list 'hand of God'.

Hi all,
My name is Sigurjon and I work for the Transport for NSW (TfNSW)
Data Services team which is a small but dedicated group which
underpin the many digital products and projects that form part of
TfNSW as a whole. The team are responsible for sourcing, managing
and providing data with an emphasis on quality and efficiency.
The TfNSW Data Services team aim to contribute and help improve
OpenStreetMap, which we started to use in our products like the
TfNSW Trip Planner (https://transportnsw.info/trip#/) from the end
of 2018, through review and updates that are identified as part of
their wide reaching day-to-day activities, feedback from their
extensive network of customer/public facing channels, and other
TfNSW internal stakeholders.
