Apologies for not engaging here earlier.

I had been continuing imports of Building and River data that had 
started back in ~2012 and is managed through linz2osm as described at 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/LINZ

Robin contacted to me and pointed out that the building data is actually 
Auckland Council data and not strictly LINZ and hence outside of the 
remit of the original LINZ import plan.  I've stopped importing building 
data and sought clarity on this on the NZ mailing list 
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/nzopengis).  No feedback to date

I continued on with river imports as these appear to me to be clearly 
part of the original import plan and have been ongoing since 2012 
without comment I believed.

Rob.
