The maps in Australia are obviously quite good in the major cities  
considering that Flickr are using OSM instead of the Yahoo maps. There  
is an increasing community appearing in Australia. The maps are  
constantly being updated, it's just a problem of having no mappers or  
community in the more remote parts of the country.
