Hi, Short answer= Yes, its fine, no problems. Long Answer= I was expecting that changeset to be mine, but pleased to see that other people are now using Matt's postcode tool. To answer your question:- The data is available under the standard Open Government Licence (just like the ONS Postcode Centroids that I am also using if it is right above a house), and can therefore be used with attribution. The attribution is on the Contributors page [1] and has been since 31 August 2012. Only a very select few sources are also attributed on the Copyright page [2] and the page makes it clear that you should see the Contributors page for the other sources.
