I'll put my hand up for (slowly) importing addresses; have begun sketching
out a plan in
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue/data.melbourne.vic.gov.au-addresses

Dataset:
https://data.melbourne.vic.gov.au/Property-Planning/Address-Points/a7rp-xtya

Sent email re explicit permission (all datasets), will add to wiki.
