I'm just writing an email now to seek a similar agreement for
sa.data.gov.au as for data.gov.au

The only issue with CC BY is that some data owners believe that
attribution "reasonable to the medium" is more than the ODbL

be likely to look for it" such as a wiki page linked from /copyright
or in the case of produced works, a "notice ... reasonably calculated
to make [anyone] aware that Content was obtained from the Database"
(The "Database" in that quote would be what was provided under CC BY).
Some cities releasing data as CC BY insisted that only mention on any
page where the map was viewed was reasonable, which is clearly
unreasonable when there can be dozens of sources on one page, or even
hundreds.

Hi Daniel,
The first step should be to find out if they are willing to have their
data relicenced under our licence?
CC-BY data is nice, and means that the data owner is likely only
seeking attribution (which we do provide) but my understanding is that
it is still insufficient for us to use without further permission from
the data owner. Pointers to our attribution page have worked in the
past in gaining such permission.
Ian.

The SA govt has joined many of the other state/local governments in
publishing open data.
The current implementation is powered by CKAN, and though I haven't
seen it yet, appears to be leveraging openstreetmap / cloudmade in
some fashion.
Anyway, the majority of the data sets are CC-A licensed, and in either
CSV or Shapefile format:
Some initial things that might be worth importing/using as a
reference/looking into:
http://www.data.sa.gov.au/dataset/major-and-minor-roads
http://www.data.sa.gov.au/dataset/library-locations
http://www.data.sa.gov.au/dataset/parks-and-reserves
http://www.data.sa.gov.au/dataset/sa-playgrounds
http://www.data.sa.gov.au/dataset/stormwater-nodes
http://www.data.sa.gov.au/dataset/surface-water-catchments
http://www.data.sa.gov.au/dataset/suburb-boundaries
and of course:
http://www.data.sa.gov.au/dataset/centrelink-office-locations
Not sure how much overlap with data.gov.au <http://data.gov.au> data
sets (assume some).
Anyone want to have a look around and
1) Call out the things you think are missing
2) Call out the things you'd want to have imported or manually
transcribed into open street map
