At worst, the list itself is a copyright infringement. That wouldn't affect
the status of any data in OSM. And since it's clearly an internal working
document, rather than something being published in its own right, it's less
likely to raise anyone's ire.

Incidentally, has anyone else noticed that when using a Garmin, it
frequently gives directions using route numbers rather than street names?
Who do I complain about this...www.osmaustralia.com? (Images from
