[talk-au] Use of online data without CC BY?

[Graeme Fitzpatrick]

Bit of an interesting question, that I'll start here, but which I can see
going to the Legal Group for a ruling?

Started updating hospital details after getting the OK & waiver through
from Qld Health to use their data.

First one on the list was Alpha, which, co-incidentally has just had a
brand new combined Health / Emergency Services facility built!

While checking info about it, I spotted the Barcaldine Council page for
Alpha, which has https://www.barcaldinerc.qld.gov.au/tourism/towns/alpha &
https://www.barcaldinerc.qld.gov.au/alpha-3, which show details & gives
info on POIs that we could include.

Contacted the Council to ask about using that info, & they have given
explicit permission for us to use this info for Alpha & 4 other towns in
their area.

That's great, but it appears that they don't publish anything under a CC BY
licence at all - the only reference I can see just says "© Barcaldine
Regional Council"?

So, can we use it, or do we have to still have a waiver of some sort?

Thanks

Graeme
