"Personal use" is one of those things that can be vague.  They don't
elaborate.

All these sites include a lot of photos and other material.  They may
only apply the strictest definition of their license to those things, it
could be worth contacting them to find out if they are happy for
OpenStreetMap collaboration on the location data.

The Anzacathon itself is a personal and non-profit activity that I've
contributed to as a volunteer and I've cited all the data sources so I'm
quite comfortable with the licensing.
