There's a number of people here in Australia who are keen to use our governments data to improve OSM and I'm sure there's been a lot of double ups in requests. I'd encourage everyone who's identifying data sources and asking for permissions or waivers to contribute to https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Data_Catalogue as a form of documentation.
I did also send and email about the waiver to [email protected] but I never received a response. I think it makes sense to send one or two follow up emails spaced out, as most of the time the emails might get lost, forgotten, and sometimes after a few follow ups we get the waiver back.
