GovHack is an annual event run by volunteers, many of whom are public 
servants, to promote open data. Teams compete to build applications 
using data supplied by government. There are prizes from government and 
business. Here is the report on last year's event:

GovHack 2013 was followed by GovCamp Canberra, where the results were 
presented to senior public servants in an effort to promote open data to 
them: http://www.govcampau.org/

The Open Knowledge Foundation Network Australia (OKFNau) was spun off 
GovHack/Camp to further the promotion of open Data: http://au.okfn.org/
