This would be better suited for the gfoss.it mailing list.
I think this could be somewhat simplified associating CAP to administrative
units (comuni) and linking to their centroids via postgis.
I agree that it could be useful for many in Italy, and the same approach could
be used in other European States too.
All the best.

Hi Armin and Hi all,
I'm working on a sort of project related to GIS topic and for this
reason I write here in a friend's list hoping to be of some interest.
I'm trying to georeference Italian ZIP code (CAP). I was not able to
find not even a raw list of CAP with long lan for Italy in free
download and free of copy write.
So I started by myself to do it and for now I have the full list for
Friuli Venezia Giulia provided to me by Carlo Mayer and, by myself
I've done already the full list of Lombardia (must be checked).This is the typical project that all of us could need and use and is
very easy and quick if done by all and huge, on the contrary, if you
are alone to do it, so I'm wondering if some one could be interested
to help at least for the region where he live but also for checking
other's work.If some one is interested he could send me a private message because
here seems off topic and we can share idea which way to go ahead.Sorry if I'm OT but this list is full of Italian so it was a good starting
pointluca
