If you know about interesting open source software or open data related to addressing and/or geocoding, let me know. Anything that I receive by Wednesday evening, I could include in the presentation.

I made a quick search and it seems that both OGC services, and more ad 
hoc APIs are used for geocoding addresses. Denmark has a more official 
looking service

http://danmarksadresser.dk/

for Finland there is an open test service (some open local datasets are 
more established)

http://api.okf.fi/console/

These have popped up very recently (few years).

ps: Maybe follow-ups should be only on OSGeo discuss to save bandwidth?
