It may happen eventually as the projects are linked. They just have to take it 
a step at a time. Meanwhile, you can add to the postcode database at

http://www.npemap.org.uk/

as long as you can work out where things are on their old, out of copyright, 
maps. This one used Free The Postcode to start with, but has added loads 
more. I'm hoping they will merge their databases at some point.
