"AFAIK there is no PD source of postcode data."

The vibes I was getting, and of course I may have misinterpreted these, are
that if we made any sort of decent case that the current ABS data, as
imported into OSM is of some benifit in respect to disaster preparedness
and/or disaster response, and that in order to keep the data in OSM, we need
it to be licenced under a certain licence, then the ABS would have an
extremely hard time saying no.

Of course all this remains to be tested.
