nice, note I'm looking for some help on how to install some of the following scripts on Fedora:
http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/party/
video.py

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Party_render

any clues on pre-reqs for this script?
Paul

does anyone know what packages or tarballs I need for a Fedora 12 system?

great stuff, looks like there is plenty of data on the govt website.

PS you might also post a note on the OSM Aust. forum too

thanks
