[talk-au] Use of map data with no copyright?

[Andrew Harvey]

Under the law, that map would be copyrighted regardless of if they
mention it's copyrighted or not.

It can be hard to work out where to draw the line, copying the name of
a street from the street sign is okay, but going over a large map and
systematically copying every street is not.
