This sound really tempting in the first place;
but I think this might arise some legal Problems:
Lets assume the postman is willing to accept publishing the tracks under 
CC-SA-BY licence. 
But:
 - do we have to ask his employer if he accepts to have all 
   the routes published his employee are taking.
 - And one more question about privacy concerns of his clients.
   Do we have to ask all clients if they want to have published when 
   and where they received a parcle?

Just my personal thoughts
