[talk-au] Parks Vic data

I've had a look at CAPAD, and the statement from the department merely
seems to be a restatement that it's CC-BY:

*"OpenStreetMap can use CAPAD 2014 under the CC-BY licence conditions
without any extra permissions from the department or from the contributing
agencies."*

To my reading this is just a way of saying that you can use it in any way
compatible with CC-BY. However I didn't think CC-BY on it's own was
sufficient for OSM & ODBL?

Other Australian datasets on
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue#Community_Imports
(Capad not listed?)  seem to have additional explicit permission statements
in addition to the CC-BY?

I've have already used CAPAD to manually add a couple of parks and tweak
some geometry, but I want to check I'm not going to cause problems by
continuing.

Thanks,

Adam
