Hi Simon I may be the guilty party, but I'm not sure?
Did contact GCCC earlier this year for permission to use data, which they gave. However, I'd forgotten to ask them for the waiver, so went back to them a couple of days later to ask for that. Lady I spoke to thought it would be OK, but had to pass it to (I assume) their legal section. A couple of months ago, she followed up with legals to check on progress & cc'ed me to say it should be resolved soon. About 2 weeks ago, I followed up with her as hadn't heard anything. She passed it to legals again & cc'ed me. I then got an e-mail from legals asking who I was & what company I represent. Sent them another copy of the basic "I'm an OSM contributor" letter together with the fact sheet, but haven't heard anything more since then. Don't know if anybody else on the Gold Coast may have asked for permission, or if they're taking my 2 - 3 contacts as multiple requests, rather than following up the original?
