What data is expected?
A database of postcodes/zipcodes and the corresponding geospatial locations in terms of a latitude and a longitude (or similar co-ordinates in an openly published national co-ordinate system). A database which gives a location in terms of the name of a town or a street without lat/long co-ordinates is not considered acceptable unless the name of the town or street can be further converted to a latitude and longitude by means of other open data (eg an open gazetteer with latitude and longitude attributes).

Details
Data is available from Post of Slovenia, but is hidden in HTML format, not available in bulk and additional skills are needed to extract it. Geodetska uprava (Slovenian equivalent of UK Ordnance survey) resells bulk data with additional GIS information.
