w00t!

Perhaps we can do a data dump of .au localities as well to be combed
through by en:wp editors ...

(no, NOT making rambot articles automatically, human consideration ;-)

Those following the post a few weeks ago about the announcement by the
Australian Bureau of Statistics that they were going to release their
material under a Creative Commons licence will be pleased to know that
it's happened.

All content on the ABS website (other than logos and other trade
marked content) is now marked as CC BY - including all census data,
economy data, fact sheets, analysis, press releases etc.

Hopefully this will just be the start of a general move towards open
access by the Australian public sector.
