[Imports] Public Barbeques in the ACT

Hi,

I'm new to OpenStreetMap, but I'd like to try importing some data.

The Australian Capital Territory (ACT) Government makes available a
significant amount of its data online, at data.act.gov.au, some of
which could be useful to have in OSM.

As a start, I was considering importing their "Public Barbeques in the
ACT" dataset, which does not appear to currently be included in the map.

The dataset is available for download here:
https://www.data.act.gov.au/Infrastructure-and-Utilities/Public-Barbeques-in-the-ACT/n3b4-mm52/data

At present, the data is released under CC BY 4.0 international, so it
appears that I would have to send a message requesting permission to
use it in a way compatible with the OSM licence.

I've looked for Canberran OSM groups, but can only find 2 users listed
as being in Canberra on the wiki, and the last meeting was 7 years ago.

I'm sending this message as requested by the import guidelines, so I'm
open to any feedback that anyone might have about this idea or how I
can go forward.

Thanks,

Riley Baird
